YOUR STR I DE Whenyouareexperiencingregularbackpain—especially ifyouareexperiencing back pain while walking—you should consider ways that you can reduce back pain by taking small steps to support your back. There are several things that you can do at home to improve your stride, which can make a significant difference when it comes to managing back pain day-to-day. Here are several ways that you can start taking care of your back with each step you take: 1. Makesure thatyouarewearing theright typesofshoes.While thegolden rule forwalking is towearsneakers,notallsneakersarecreatedequally. You need to wear a sneaker that is going to provide you with the arch support thatmeetsyour individualneeds.Thismaymeanupgrading from your minimal support sneaker to something more athletically designed.
2. Try a custom insert in your shoe. Of course, you can’t wear sneakers all the time. When you are at the office, professional footwear matters. You may find it helpful to have custom orthotics made for your work shoes so that you can have more arch support around the clock. 3. Workon improvingyourposture. Ifyouareslouchingwhenyouwalk, then that may be impacting the way that your back feels. Take a few minutes in the morning and again in the afternoon to stretch your back, and then make a point of keeping your shoulders square and your back straight as you walk. Simply standing tall may alleviate some of your back pain. Another way that walking can help alleviate back pain is by encouraging weight loss. Being overweight puts added pressure on your back, and this can contribute to increasedbackpain.Workingwithaphysical therapist to improve yourwalking techniquecanhelpyou toovercomebackpainonestepata time.
