Can this type of skull work prevent or reverse age-related stooping?
Yes. Even though the stooping posture is considered to be a consequence of osteoporosis, age-related stooping is actually a simple change in posture. As the posture worsens, there is also bone loss. This is because bone grows most strongly in areas where the gravitational force is greatest and does not grow where there is no gravitational force. When posture is poor, there is less gravitational force in the bone because the musculature is helping to support the body. This means that there is less stimulation of bone growth when posture is poor. With essential changes from care, posture improves and the bones grow stronger again. Posture changes because most postural problems are created from the spines difficulty in supporting the skull. As the head is positioned more forward on top of the neck, the head tips slightly forward and the body is pulled forward by the weight of the head, leading to a stooped posture. The role of care in this situation, then, is to change the position of the
