IS YOUR SMARTPHONE BECOMING
A PAIN-IN-THE NECK?
The Growing Problem of Text Neck Syndrome
In today’s technology driven world, more and more
people are constantly viewing their smartphones on a
daily basis. It was reported that the average person
views their mobile device 110 times a day. That’s
insane! While you are constantly looking down at
your phone, you are putting tons of stress and tension
on your neck. Over time, this can strain the neck’s
muscular and skeletal structures. Yikes, that does not
sound good.
