4. Improve your nutrition. Your body is a machine, and machines need to be properly tuned in order to run effectively. You need to give yourself the correct fuel to feed the ligaments, tendons, muscles, and discs in your spine, as well as the surrounding muscles and tissues. Make sure to eat dark green leafy vegetables, lean protein, and stay hydrated. Avoid smoking and fried foods, which actually harm your tissues and make pain more prevalent. 5. Get moving! Your body was made to move - especially your spine. It’s common for areas of your spine to tighten up, placing too much strain on other

areas, which then become irritated and painful. Restore the flexibility in your spine with specialized hands-on therapy like chiropractic adjustments and massage. You can also participate in Yoga and/or Pilates to improve your stability, strength, and spinal balance. Your spine is the largest component of the nervous system, which acts as the conductor of your body. Aside from controlling mobility, your spine is integral in transmitting messages to and from your brain. Even if you’re not experiencing back, shoulder, or neck pain, it’s incredibly important to stay proactive in your spinal health. Sit less, exercise more, be cognizant of your posture, and make sure to fuel yourself with nutritious foods. It’s the best way to invest in a healthier you!
