In today’s fast-paced world, many of us spend hours hunched over desks or staring at screens. While technology has made life easier, it’s also contributed to a surge in posture-related issues. At Pitt Meadows Physiotherapy Clinic, we see the effects of modern life every day—but the good news is, you don’t have to live with the pain!
