Description
3. Degenerative conditions which are often part of the aging process or trauma that can cause misalignment or fracture (chronic).
The mysterious pain that seems to strike an otherwise healthy back usually is the result of long-term poor posture, lack of exercise, improper body mechanics and years of sitting. A healthy back is meant to be supported by a system of bones, muscles and ligaments, but when we allow our posture to slouch, we out added stress on the spinal structures. Eventually, the spine takes on an unnatural curve, and back pain, numbness or tingling in the legs may evovle.
Maintenance of the back's three natural curves helps keep your spine properly aligned. Your low back is the the cervical curve. Healthy movement with these three natural curves aligned is the key to preventing injury. Most people suffer pain in their lower back, which includes the lumbar (below waist) and the sacral (above the tailbone) levels of the spine.
