WALK I NG AWAY FROM YOUR BACK PA I N ! Is Walking Hard On Your Back?

PATIENT SUCCESS SPOTLIGHT

Does going for a walk sound like a big pain in the back? For those who struggle with chronic back pain, even the basic task of going for a walk can be overwhelming and painful. Back pain can strike at any time. Whether in the upper back, surrounding the neck and shoulders, or in the lower back at the lumbar or sciatica, back pain is something that no one likes to deal with for too long. Relying on pain medications to help you overcome back pain will leave you disappointed. While pain medications are frequently helpful at alleviating the discomfort of your back pain for a short period of time, they are not capable of resolving the issue that is causing your pain to develop in the first place. The only thing that can actually fix your back pain is addressing the issue that is causing your pain head on. Treatment is a great resource for addressing your back pain and can be a helpful tool in getting you back on your feet. So, whether it is following a sudden injury or a chronic issue that has developed over time, treatment could be the answer to helping you enjoy life free of back pain. And the secret to success is learning to approach recovery one step at a time.

“The results speak for themselves!” “I’ve had knee, back and hip pain due to a hip issue for the greater part of 3 years. I’m a dancer among other things, and this pain made it difficult to fully enjoy a lot of my hobbies. I’ve been seeing

Nick for maybe a year now, and I can easily say that the results speak for themselves. I’ve gone from having intense pain almost everyday to only having pain maybe twice a week, and that’s if I’m active that week. If you put in the work, you will see results!”
