A member asked:

I have reversal of cervical spine lordosis. on mri. is it possible to improve this by correcting terrible forward head posture?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

A physical therapist, experienced in such neck spinal deformity, can help you correct your posture and strengthen your neck muscles to restore more normal curvature of your spine at the neck level. Do not perform any forceful neck exercises without supervision.
