Above is a picture described by Alois Brugger as the "cogwheel" sitting posture. On the left the figure displays a common sitting posture which leads to both a posterior pelvic tilt and a forward head.
In this position of spinal flexion a maximum amount of pressure is distributed onto the lower vertebrae causing trauma and lower back pain.
To correct this the lower back must be extended to create a healthy lordosis which in turn brings the head back and the pelvis forward.
