Postural pain often develops gradually and is commonly linked to prolonged sitting, desk-based work, or repeated daily habits. It can affect the neck, shoulders, upper back, and lower back, and may contribute to ongoing discomfort if left unaddressed.
At HJOsteo, we help people across Newcastle-under-Lyme, Stoke-on-Trent, Eccleshall and Staffordshire manage postural pain and move more comfortably in everyday life.
What Causes Postural Pain?
Postural pain may be associated with:
- Desk-based or screen work
- Prolonged sitting or standing
- Poor workstation setup
- Muscle imbalance
- Reduced movement variety during the day
Over time, this can lead to stiffness, tension, and restricted movement.

Treatment may include:
