FIND THE SOURCE OF YOUR BACK AND NECK PAIN PHYSICAL THERAPY CAN SAVE YOU FROM THE COST AND PAIN OF SURGERY
Most of us will experience back or neck pain at some point in our lives. It’s the price we pay for walking on two legs. If you suffer from the occasional ache, or have chronic low back or neck pain, you may be a candidate for physical therapy. The goal with PT is to safely relieve your pain without the need for costly and abrasive surgeries. In fact, recent studies point to the fact that patients who underwent a common fusion procedure for the spine were more likely to have a second surgery within 2 years*. The best way to avoid the need for spine surgery is to improve the health of your spine, and physical therapy plays a key role in making that happen. WHY DOES YOUR NECK OR BACK HURT? One thing to understand about neck and back pain is that it is mechanical. Just as a car can have problems with moving parts, so too can your spine. The daily barrage of strain on our backs caused by sitting for long periods of time, lifting improperly, and insufficient nutrition can wreak havoc on our spines.
The good news is that your body is adaptable and you can typically treat your pain just by taking steps to increase your mobility and adjust your mechanics. With the right treatment and training, your back or neck can usually make a full recovery naturally – without the need for invasive surgeries and procedures.
Most spine pain comes from the following 4 trouble areas: 1. Poor posture and alignment 2. Lack of knowledge on how to properly bend, lift, sit, sleep 3. Lack of muscle strength 4. Poor flexibility and muscle coordination
