Changes in mechanical load and extensor muscle activity in the cervico-thoracic spine induced by sitting posture modification

The influence of whole body sitting posture on cervico-thoracic posture, mechanical load and extensor muscle activity was examined in 23 asymptomatic adults. Cervical and upper thoracic extensor muscle activity measured in guided slouched and lumbo-pelvic neutral postures was normalised to that meas...
