Our focus is on holistic and natural remedies. We have been helping people recover from surgery related to back pain for a long time, and because of this experience, we believe that homeopathic treatment of back pain is the best approach to a remedy. Invasive treatments offered by traditional medicine only treat the symptoms of back pain, no the underlying physical causes.
Therefore, we feel that traditional approaches excessively concentrate on the symptoms and thus cause patients more pain in the long run. Not only are those methods more costly, more invasive and unnecessarily harsh, they require long periods of recovery and do not provide any cures.
Odd as it might at first seem, lumbar exercises are a great way to address the root cause of back pain that lead many to the operating room table. However, lower back pain is a physical problem that requires a physical solution.
Chances are, your lower back pain was not the result of an injury. Despite being the most common type of back pain complaint, only 10% of cases were as a result of trauma. For the overwhelming majority, lower back pain accrued slowly through overuse, bad posture and inactivity. The solution can be just as simple, slow and completely effective.
You might be wondering why, if you are in pain to begin with, would someone want you to exercise? The answer is simple: muscle imbalance basically means some of your back muscles are weak and some are strong. Its the strong ones that keep doing all the work that they werent meant to handle all by themselves.
By performing regular lumbar exercises and stretches, you can strengthen the weak paraspinal muscles that are supposed to doing some of the work, thereby giving a break to the strong ones so they can heal.
Sitting all day crouched over a desk or a computer, having the wrong bed, the wrong desk chair and the wrong standing posture all contributed to the strain and little tears that developed in the stronger muscles that have been overcompensating for the weak ones.
Ideally, when you stand, your ears, shoulders, and hips should be in a straight line. However, after years of muscle imbalance, standing this natural way takes effort. The weak muscles have become short and contracted, leaving your body to settle in to a posture that is causing you chronic pain.
For a regimen that will:
* • Bring balance and equilibrium back to your posture, • Teach you how to sit and stand in ways that reduce your back pain, • Keep your muscles strong • and Keep your spine healthy,
