Good posture can be successfully acquired only when the
entire mechanism of the body is under perfect control. - Joseph Pilates
Of course we were often advised
to stand up straight! Posture matters. Vancouver back pain patients are
quite familiar with this. Vancouver Spine Care Centre makes sure that they do! Poor posture and back pain often
go together. Vancouver Spine Care Centre treats poor posture and back pain
together. Vancouver Spine Care Centre and our Vancouver chiropractic patients experience improvement in one often results in improvement in
the other.
POSTURE AND Vancouver BACK PAIN
Many issues factor into the connection
between Vancouver back pain and posture. The whole mechanism of the body truly
is at work as Pilates says. Researchers point out
that poor posture is documented to change
joint position and produce pain, like back pain. Musculoskeletal
back pain is improved when postural issues are corrected.
(1) Recent research states that even patients with plantar heel pain experience more low back pain and higher rates of low
back pain disability due to decreased foot and
ankle function. (2) If one leg is shorter than the other, hip pain
is known to appear on the longer leg side.
Sciatica (leg pain) and disc protrusion do as well. (3,4,5) Leg
length inequality modifies posture and may initiate
back pain. Vancouver Spine Care Centre takes care of this
myriad of concerns with chiropractic care options like spinal
manipulation, exercise and occasionally orthotic lifts for
our Vancouver chiropractic patients.
TREATMENT FOR POSTURE RELATED BACK PAIN
A foundation of the Vancouver chiropractic
treatment plan for patients with Vancouver back pain and postural
issues is many times manual therapy spinal manipulation (after
a detailed examination, of course!). Vancouver Spine Care Centre picks
this option as spinal research indicates that it
is effective accompanied by
posture correction. Manual therapy treatment furthers
posture improvement and low pain reduction more notably
than low back massage. (6) Three sessions of manipulation improved
posture control and reduced pain in a female patient complaining
of low back pain and altered balance. (7)
Vancouver Spine Care Centre offers posture-correcting, pain-reducing Vancouver
chiropractic care.
