How does someone get altered mechanics/movement in the spine?
Problems associated with your spine can occur in two ways, as active injuries or passive injuries. Active Injuries are the most obvious. They are injuries associated with motor vehicle accidents, whiplash, slip and fall, lifting, repetitive/overuse injuries (such as when working with computers, or as a butcher or factory worker), exercising or participating in sports. Passive Injuries can occur without the patient being aware. They are injuries, which can be the effect of prolonged lying on the couch, poor sleeping positions, poor ergonomics at work, using too many pillows or relaxation positions. Both types of injuries can result in biomechanical disorders associated with the spine affecting neuromuscular systems.
