Doctors will always recommend bed rest, which is logical when the early acute phase of any condition that has befallen you, but research has shown that recovery will actually be the slowest if you are constantly at rest. <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If we were to rely on physiology, it certainly makes sense \u2013 movement decreases, circulation is worse, and therefore tissue nutrition and drainage of harmful substances. You can conclude for yourself that, judging by these listed items, the whole recovery will go much slower and may not even take place to the end. <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If mobility is reduced to a minimum in a certain state, the structures will be increasingly shortened and it will be increasingly difficult to restore the &#8220;normal&#8221; state of the affected regions.<\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The question of the best position<\/h2>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A common answer is that the back is straight, the neck is relieved, the hips are relieved&#8230; However, no position is ideal.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If we are constantly in one position, it means that certain structures are more active, and others are less or completely inactive. The same thing happens with the length of the muscles, some are more elongated by a given position, while others are shorter. Certainly, the position will sometimes lead to overloading some structures. The worst place you can be is the same.   <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Vary the position, from the most hunched back to the straightened one, then cross one leg then the other, bend, spring, turn the body upside down :). Just change your position and keep your body moving. Get up from a chair, bed, stretch, do a curl, squat&#8230;  <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>And one more important item for the end \u2013 listen to your body, it will direct you on the right path!<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>There are certain postures and movements that, when there is a problem in some part of the body, will ease or aggravate the symptoms that occur, and then there are some recommendations.
