Getting in and out of a car can be a tough challenge when dealing with back pain. Here are a few tips to help.
The key is to be aware of your posture and safety awareness.
Daily living including sports and household chores should be done with overall and spinal safety in mind.
Whatever positions work for you and your regular activities bending, retrieving, lifting, and carrying objects, using correct techniques combined with proper posture will take care of your neck and back.
Chiropractic can take care of your spine which means it is good for your overall health. While many people think that its only purpose is to treat back pain, chiropractic focuses on total body wellness. All too often problems within the body are interrelated.
