8Retrolisthesis Prevention
It is not always possible to prevent retrolisthesis from occurring. However, you can take a few measures to reduce the risk. These include:
– Stop smoking because tobacco products might damage your joints over time
– Have good posture when standing and sitting
– Do pelvic tilt exercises to strengthen core muscles, which can reduce the strain on your back
– Have a healthy and balanced diet
– Keep an optimal weight to optimize your bone health and reduce strain on your back
– Avoid lifting heavy objects or do any activities that put too much pressure on the back
– Practice yoga to improve back alignment, core strength, and posture. [10]
