It’s estimated that about 80% of us will experience back pain at some point in our lives. Some will experience back pain as the result of some sort of trauma for others, it will occur from the degeneration of age. Illness can cause back pain as can our lifestyles. When back pain occurs, you can take comfort in knowing your Brentwood and Franklin chiropractor at Premier Family Chiropractic is here to help.
While it may seem back pain is not preventable, there are steps you can take to limit your exposure to it.
Steps to Prevent Back Pain
You can be proactive in preventing back pain by taking the following back pain prevention steps:
- Eat a healthy diet and maintain a weight appropriate for your frame.
- Stretch and warm up before engaging in athletic activities or exercise.
- Avoid shoes that have higher heels and those that are uncomfortable.
- Stay active.
- Stop smoking. Smoking can prevent needed oxygen from reaching spinal tissues.
- Pay attention to your posture.
- Lift items with your legs and knees, keeping items close to you.
- Lift and then twist. Do not twist while lifting.
- Make sure you are working in an ergonomically friendly environment.
- If you notice even minor back pain, see a chiropractor to keep it from worsening.
