 Almost everyone gets back pain at some time, but staying active, with the help of chiropractic treatment, may well be the best solution.
Are you sitting comfortably?
Poor posture may lead to back pain. Your BCA chiropractor may advise you to make postural changes if you:
• spend hours a day sitting at a desk or a computer • slouch in front of the TV • sleep in a bed that is too hard or soft • find yourself hunching your back and shoulders in stressful situations
Treating the cause, not the symptoms
As you go through life, a slight loss of proper movement of the bones/joints can interfere with the healthy working of your spine, and the nerves that pass through it. This can lead to pain. Chiropractic, unlike painkilling drugs, treats the cause of pain, not just the pain itself. Your BCA chiropractor will carry out a full examination (including X-rays if necessary), and ask you questions about your posture, medical history and lifestyle, to try and discover the cause of your back pain and offer a diagnosis of your complaint.
