Tips For Preventing Lower Back Pain
Preventing lower back pain begins with learning what can cause it. If at one point or another in your life, you have found yourself suffering from lower back pain, you are not alone. According to the American Chiropractic Association, up to 80% of the population will experience lower back pain in their life.
Back pain is more than just a pain in the back. It causes lost productivity in the workforce, is a leading cause of disability, and costs Americans a lot in health care bills each year (over $50 billion). In fact, it is the third most common reason for doctor’s visits.
Lower back pain does not target any particular group of people. It can happen at all ages and stages of life. In fact, once you have experienced it, reoccurrence is common. Considering your back is made of bones, joints, ligaments, and muscles any combination of things can cause lower back pain. From the simplest movements, to the most complex diseases, lower back pain can strike at any time for a number of reasons.
Chiropractic care is an effective method toward alleviating and preventing lower back pain. It is safe, noninvasive and a non-drug treatment option. A conservative approach to lower back pain is recommended by many national agencies and well-respected journals due to the opioid epidemic.
