Isn most back pain caused by misaligned vertebrae, bulging discs, or pinched nerves?
Though misaligned vertebrae often generate back pain by impinging (pinching) nerves, they are seldom the root cause of pain. The root cause of over 95% of back pain is muscle failure. In a healthy spine, strong muscles, fully hydrated discs, and flexible ligaments so powerfully bind spinal componenents that torsion up to 480 foot/pounds is required to force misalignment of vertebrae. Conversely, in a spine with inadequate muscle tone, vertebrae may misalign with no force beyond a simple twist of the body. Regardless of how a painful spine is treated, from a simple realignment to complex surgery, unless and until spinal muscles are therapeutically restored to full function, a back will never return to complete, dependable function. The patented BackHealth™ Exerciser and copyrighted exercise routine allow safe, precise muscle therapy on safe, precise equipment.
