概要
Many people describe a feeling of head heaviness—especially after long days at a desk or on their phone—even when they're not in pain. In this episode of The Health Commute, we explain why this sensation is rarely about muscle weakness or stress alone.
Your head weighs roughly 10–12 pounds, but when posture changes and the head shifts forward, the load placed on the neck and upper back increases dramatically. Over time, this leads to muscle fatigue, tension, stiffness, and headaches—often long before pain appears.
This episode breaks down the simple physics behind forward head posture, why rest and stretching provide only temporary relief, and how improving spinal alignment can significantly reduce strain. If your head feels heavy, tired, or difficult to hold up by the end of the day, this conversation will help you understand why—and what actually helps long term.
