Back Pain
Back pain can range from a minor annoyance to excruciating pain that limits movement and your ability to perform daily tasks. It can lead to disability and limit opportunities to provide for your family and live life to the fullest.
There are many reasons for back pain, but there are few truly effective solutions that address the root cause of the painful condition. Most remedies just treat the symptoms. When you address the root cause, you will be pain free and improve the quality of your life!
How does back pain occur? We tend to abuse our spines when we slouch at the computer, lift heavy items or reach without using our legs or core muscles. Many normal daily functions can cause low back pain including stress!
Specifically, muscle, ligament and tendon strains and sprains can cause back pain. Degeneration of spinal components such as the discs and osteoarthritis can cause chronic low back pain. There are of course traumatic injuries such as a blow to the body that can cause back pain, muscle spasms, trigger points, nerve entrapment and more.
At the root of all back pain, there is a process taking place that is the body’s normal response to any injury or degenerative condition. There are three phases to healing, during which time there are specific treatments necessary to promote faster more efficient healing to avoid chronic pain in the future.
The first phase is inflammation, which is the body’s way of attempting to protect an area that is injured. Inflammation, along with nerve entrapment can cause painful compression of the nerves and other spinal components.
As well, proper fluid movement is hampered. This means that nourishing, healing fluids are restricted and toxic fluids from the injury remain in the tissue. Addressing this inflammation is crucial to the healing process. Passive motion should be used at this point to reduce the inflammation.
The second phase is the repair phase where your body attempts to replace the damaged tissue with new collagen. Nutritional supplements such as vitamin C are essential to this process.
The third phase is the remodeling phase in which the new collagen needs to be properly aligned. This new collagen is irregular and in order for it to function properly, it needs a little help being remodeled with the "appropriate techniques and forms of therapy”.
