Have You Got a Sore Back?

When your lower back can’t hold itself efficiently, it leads to pain, anxiety-inducing muscle spasms and fatigue.

But what causes it? And how can Osteopathy help?

When you wear high heels or improper footwear, slouch over your desk, sit for long periods, or you're permanently stressed. In addition, not getting enough sleep and running on caffeine and other so-called energy boosters; results in postural strain.

Postural strain is the stress that your daily life places on your back when you repeatedly slouch over your desk. Carry children, Sit in awkward positions, or react to stress by holding your shoulders up by your ears for long periods. It’s also caused by your body’s natural adaptation to accidents, injury, repetitive movements, and historical surgeries. But whatever the cause or catalyst was for you, it’s the resulting postural strain from these activities, injuries or operations that causes tight muscles, stiffness and daily back pain.

For you, back pain could be intermittent mild pain and stiffness. For others, severe and unrelenting daily pain limits their activity and leaves them bedbound. In addition, you may have nerve pain that starts in your lower back and shoots down into your legs. In severe cases, you might even have muscle weakness, numbness and tingling accompanying the pain.

It's there every time you move or change position – and seems to get worse right when you get into bed and try to sleep. Walking aggravates it, and running is excruciating. The gym and playing sport are out of the question – and you're popping pain pills every couple of hours to get through the day. The pain consumes every waking moment and stops you from doing everything you love.

Does This Sound Like You?

If it does, don’t worry.

Osteopathy can help you get your life back.

We see patients with back pain all the time. It’s one of the most common pain problems we see in the OSTEOWORKS clinic.

“But Why is This Happening to Me?”...

or

Why Do I Still Have Back Pain When I Have Been Resting And Taking It Easy For 6 Months+?”

Everyone has a sore back sometimes (especially past a certain age), right? Wrong. Your back should be flexible, pain-free, and supple, regardless of age. But whether you're young or old or somewhere in between, the pain won't just disappear if you leave it. It's tempting to believe it will if you rest and take it easy. But in our experience, it doesn't. Instead, in most cases, the pain gets worse.

Have You Had Back Pain For More Than Seven Days?

If you’ve had back pain for longer than a week, you’ve probably already been to see your GP. They likely told you to rest, take anti-inflammatories and take it easy. Then escorted you out of their office with the age-old, “Come back and see me if it doesn’t get better”.

Unfortunately, most of the patients we see end up back in their doctor's office (before they come to us). They told them to take more painkillers and get more rest because things didn't get better.

If You’ve Been Putting Up With Back Pain For A Long Time, You’re Not Alone. We Hear These Types Of Statements From Patients all the time

  • "I thought the pain would go in time, but it just didn't."
  • "I went to the Doctor, and they told me it was just getting old or arthritis."
  • "I tried exercising through the pain, but it got even worse."
  • "I saw a surgeon, but he said surgery was the last resort, and he would only operate when I couldn't stand the pain any longer."
  • I tried to rest if longer, even took time off the gym and work, but the pain is still the same”

What Can I do to Get Rid of My Back Pain Now?

If you have been in pain for a while, there is no immediate fix. It takes time. But you can reduce your pain and discomfort with these tips:

  • First, you need to make sure you’re hydrated. When your body is dehydrated, it is prone to stiffness, aches, and pains. So, drinking water won't cure your back pain. But, ensuring you're well-hydrated every day can go a long way toward reducing the severity of your symptoms.
  • Next, try using heat therapy or an ice pack. Heat and cold can help relax you and reduce pain and discomfort. Don't worry too much about which one to choose. Both are beneficial for back pain. Choose the one that feels the most relaxing and comforting to you.
  • Get up and move – If you spend a lot of time sitting at home and in the office, one of the best things you can do to reduce back pain is to get up from your seat and move around. Don't sit for more than 20 minutes at a time – especially if you're prone to slouching. Set your alarm to get up and stretch and take a walk (even if it’s just around in a circle) every 20 minutes.
  • Get expert, “hands-on” Osteopathy – The best way to reduce your pain and discomfort and get rid of back pain for good is to start regular Osteopathic treatment.
