Back Pain Exercises
According to the Mayo Clinic, four out of five people in the United States (80% of Americans), will experience back pain at least once during their lives. It's one of the most common reasons people go to the doctor or miss work - but you don't have to resign yourself to a life of back pain or discomfort. Egoscue can help with our innovative method of personalized stretching exercises for back pain!
Your back is a complex configuration of bones, muscles, ligaments, tendons and discs, and back pain can arise when these component parts become misaligned due to injuries or negative lifestyle conditions. The Egoscue Method recognizes that fundamental anatomical, physiological and biomechanical principles govern the human musculoskeletal system and that by eliminating disparities that affect the way the musculoskeletal system moves through custom posture back pain exercises, pain can be diminished or even eliminated completely.
So what does this all mean? Basically, your body is designed to move a certain way, but if your body deviates from the norm, a muscular imbalance in strength and/or flexibility occurs. When your body starts to compensate for these imbalances your body suffers. If you suffer from back pain, an Egoscue therapist can help with our cutting edge method of custom posture exercises to reduce back pain.
When you come into an Egoscue clinic a therapist will observe your gait, the way you stride, turn and perform other routine maneuvers to target problem areas and detect which of your muscles are being underutilized or over-used. The therapist will then "prescribe" a custom physical fitness program that includes yoga exercises for back pain, exercises to build up your muscular conditioning, and common stretches to balance your movements.
Once you put your personal posture back pain exercises into place, your body can be allowed to restore muscular balance, skeletal alignment and the harmonious interplay of internal systems, and pain will diminish, if not completely disappear.
Whether you are a professional athlete or a weekend warrior, no one is immune to pain and the symptoms of musculoskeletal dysfunction. With the Egoscue Method you can successfully treat musculoskeletal pain without drugs, surgery, or manipulation. Call us today at 800-995-8434 for more information on exercise for back pain.
