Stand up! – Easy lifestyle Tips for a Healthy Spine

August 24, 2018

Bend, stretch, sit, stand, jog, sleep, run or dance! All these everyday activities require a healthy spine. Every health discipline, from yoga and acupressure to chiropractic treatments and modern medicine has stressed the importance of a healthy spine. This extra attention towards spine care is fully justified. The twenty-four movable bones, together, support our weight, hold us upright, balance the body, keep an upright posture and facilitate agility in our movements. Most importantly, the spine which holds the spinal cord sends messages to and interacts with different parts of the body.

 

How to Have a Healthy Spine?

Small changes to your current lifestyle will help you have a healthier spine without being subject to illness or disorder.

 

An unhealthy spine starts giving off warning signs early on. Fatigue, tight or weak muscles, degeneration of spinal discs, neck and backaches, jaw pain, rib pain, sleep disorders and poor concentration are some of the symptoms that indicate a poor back or unhealthy spine.

 

 
 These simple tips could be your key to a healthy lifestyle. They will help you maintain good spine health over a longer period of time. In case of prolonged back pain, consult a qualified physiotherapist for an expert opinion. Physiotherapy helps restore, maintain and maximize strength, function, movement, and overall well-being.
