Forward Head Posture is the anterior positioning of the cervical spine that is characteristic of forward head posture.
It is a posture problem that is caused by several factors including sleeping with the head elevated too high, extended use of computers, lack of developed back muscle strength and lack of nutrients such as calcium. [1]
Individuals who display this posture are often associated with geek culture due to the awkward appearance that is caused when moving.
