What are the factors that are most important for spinal health?
The fact is that about 80% of us experience significant spinal pain in our lifetimes. This tells us that a lot of us are doing things that contribute to the onset of back pain. The vast majority of back pain is caused from accumulative strain, i.e. strain that built up over a long time, even if the onset of the pain was sudden. The factors that most of us do most of the time to cause back pain are: • Poor postural (deep stability) muscle control • Poor flexibility and stiff joint movement • Lacking cardiovascular fitness • Mental stress maintained over long periods The great news is that these factors are changeable. To get you on track Baroona Physios are experts at getting you back in shape ready to rapidly recover from pain or to prevent spinal pain occurring.
