I'm no doctor/chiropractor. but do have a interest in back pain and its causes/remedy
Im interested as to what type of back pain you guys suffer from and why
Is it mainly lower back/lumber area
Unless you have had a back injury specific to the area concerned, then alot of back problems can originate from poor posture. This can be attributed to a number of factors, which are specific to the individual.
I dont want to alarm anybody but as mentioned in a previous post the effects of long term usuage of a support belt should be given consideration, espcially if it was going to be relied on to alleviate pain consistently.
For you guys in Jersey who are interested and suffer from back pain, and are prepared to do something about it there is a great style of yoga on offer on your island. Its called Svaroopa Yoga and is great for alleviating back problems,
I know that this sounds like a advert but after 25 years of physically abusing myself on building sites I've been there with a bad back and laid up in bed for weeks. It took me months to get back to to 'normal'.
Then I came across Svaroopa .This is not the normal gymnastic yoga that we see paraded in the media. That may have its place for the young and agile, but lets be honest most of us aren't that are we !! Once practicing Svaroopa the healing process became rapid and I went past 'normal' and began to experience a flexibility that I had years earlier.
Back pain all but dissapeared....Im not suggesting that you all go and become yogis, but if it gets too much and you live in Jersey....... You might be plesantly suprised whats on your door step.
I have just re-read this and it reads like a miracle cure advert.......... its not it takes persistance and hardwork. Just thought I'd put it out there
