Well one thing is to look at yourself in the mirror. Is one shoulder higher than the other, or does it look like your head it tilted or shifted? is one hip higher or one leg shorter? Go to a chiropractor and started getting aligned. Immediately start watching what you do all day. How are you sitting? Sit up straight, head up and back a little to prevent from forward head carry, don't look down at a phone all the time, raise the phone up, make sure you are ergonomically correct at a computer, etc and you can google or you tube good posture habits and it can really hep you a lot. Watch how heavy is your purse too and which shoulder you carry it on, switch back and forth and maybe lighten it up.
Good luck!

Most chiropractics adjust their babies when born!! My youngest patient was 6 weeks old. The mother brought her in with projectile vomiting. The pediatrician wanted to give the baby prilosec!!! Yikes! The mother said no way and brought her to me. I gave 2 gentle activator method adjustments and it stopped. I had a 15 month old that only slept 3 hours a night since birth. After about 4 adjustments the baby started sleeping 9 hours a night! Chiropractic is about function of the nervous system!!! Go go go!!! all ages :)
