The Resilient Body with Dr. Ar'neka

Ep. 154 Is Your Bra Causing Your Back Pain??

Dr. Ar'neka Cooper Season 1 Episode 154

If your upper back always feels tight, your shoulders are tense by midday, or you’re constantly adjusting your bra this episode is for you. Because believe it or not, the wrong bra could be messing with more than just your comfort. It might be disrupting your posture, restricting your breathing, and even throwing off your core function.

In this episode, we uncover the hidden ways bras (especially tight, compressive ones) can contribute to neck, shoulder, and back pain especially for moms.

You’ll learn:
🔹 Why your ribcage needs to move to stay pain-free
🔹 How restrictive bras limit breathing, core coordination, and posture
🔹 The signs your bra is part of the problem (and how to test it)
🔹 What to look for in a bra that actually supports your body—not works against it

This isn’t just about comfort it’s about supporting your spine, breath, and long-term movement. Your wardrobe might need a tune-up, and your back will thank you
