The spine related pain attacks either back or neck. The spine
runs down from the neck portion to the tip of the lower torso
skeleton. The number of patients visiting physiotherapists or doctors
for neck and back pain has alarmed the situation in America. Its been
found that there are two reason for which people suffer from neck and
back pain.
The
first one is called the acute pain. In this the spine suffers injury
or strain due to sudden hard labor or lifting or shifting of heavy
objects like furniture, boxes or others. Any body who is not
accustomed to do strenuous labor if suddenly does fall a victim to
the neck and back pain.
The second reason is called Cumulative stress injuries, which
is also called CSI pains. This is the main reasons of most of the
Americans suffering from spinal pain. The neck and the
back suffer strains if they remain in certain postures for consequent
long periods. The whole new science called the branch of ergonomics
has been introduced and developed for preventing this kind of stress
injury. It takes into account proper designing of furniture and other
appliances as a step for neck and back pain remedies that would help
placing body parts in optimum posture while working in offices or at
other places.
What
are neck and back pain remedies?
For
immediate relief of pain, there are medicines like aspirin and its
types. Also, if the pain is unbearable, injections too are given by
doctors for immediate relief. But holistic healing approaches have
been found to have given better remedies for neck and back pain. When
the cause is a simple mechanical strain, the first intervention one
can take is massaging with some essential oils and exercise programs
along with good posture habits. But if the cause is a serious
mechanical spinal strain like whiplash neck injuries or chronic lower
back pain, acupuncture and osteopathic(chiropractic) are accustomed
to patients for
better relief. In severe cases, the best applicable remedy for the
pain would be to undergo the blades- that is a surgery.
