Good posture can be successfully acquired only when the
entire mechanism of the body is under perfect control. - Joseph Pilates
Of course we were often advised
to stand up straight! Posture matters. Brooks back pain patients are
quite familiar with this. Soft Health and Healing Clinic ensures that they do! Poor posture and back pain often
go together. Soft Health and Healing Clinic treats them
together. Soft Health and Healing Clinic and our Brooks chiropractic patients find
that improvement in one often is followed by improvement in
the other.
POSTURE AND Brooks BACK PAIN
Many factors affect how posture and Brooks back pain are
related. The body mechanism really
is at work as Pilates suggests. Researchers point out
that poor posture is documented to alter
joint position and cause pain, like back pain. Musculoskeletal
back pain is bettered when postural issues are corrected.
(1) Recent research states that even patients with plantar heel pain have more low back pain and higher rates of low
back pain disability because of reduced foot and
ankle function. (2) When one leg is shorter than the other, hip pain
is recorded to appear on the longer leg side.
Sciatica (leg pain) and disc protrusion do , too. (3,4,5) Leg
length inequality alters posture and may trigger
back pain. Soft Health and Healing Clinic addresses all of these concerns with chiropractic care options like spinal
manipulation, exercise and sometimes orthotic lifts for
all of our Brooks
back pain patients.
TREATMENT FOR POSTURE RELATED BACK PAIN
A foundation of the Brooks chiropractic
treatment plan for patients with Brooks back pain and postural
issues is frequently manual therapy spinal manipulation (after
a full examination, of course!). Soft Health and Healing Clinic chooses
this option as spinal research discloses that it
is effective together with
posture correction. Manual therapy treatment boosts
posture improvement and low pain reduction more significantly
than low back massage. (6) Three sessions of manipulation improved
posture control and decreased pain in a female patient with low back pain and uneven balance. (7)
Soft Health and Healing Clinic offers posture-correcting, pain-reducing Brooks
chiropractic care.
