And there's very little a doctor can do about it besides suggesting better shoes, a better bed, sitting up straight and just being generally more conscious about your posture.
i guess i should consider myself lucky that i generally don't have any back problems. how do you know your spine is out of alignment? just back pain? though i guess my back bothers me sometimes when i walk long distances but i don't know, it just seems that once you're going, you're going for life.
