Wellness Solution Centers to Hold Monthly "Dinner with the Docs" Program
Program Topic: How your posture and lack of mobility is killing you, and what you can do about it
Wellness Solution Centers will hold its monthly “Dinner with the Docs” program on Monday, April 6, from 7:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. at Applebee’s, 2 West Road, Newtown, PA 18940. The April program will explore how poor posture and a lack of mobility can negatively affect your health and will provide strategies for improving your posture.
Doctors Dane Donohue and Roger Saias of Wellness Solution Centers will discuss the importance of correct posture for your overall health and well-being. Research from 47 medical studies concluded that those who sit for long hours raise their risk of cancer, cardiovascular disease, type 2 diabetes and early death.
According to the Journal of the American Geriatric Society, poor posture, especially hyperkyphosis or a forward head posture, increases mortality and death rates and increases the risk of arterioscleros by 2.4 times. According to Dr. Donohue, “Even for those of us who meet recommended daily levels of exercise, sitting for long periods of time boosts our likelihood of declining health.”

He continues,” Even those who punctuate a long day of sitting with a vigorous workout are estimated to be 16% more likely to die of any cause in a given time than those who do not sit for long,” said Donohue.
