Learn About Improved Spine Health With Stockbridge GA Chiropractor


By Bertulda Zerna


Many people experience back aches and pains periodically. If you are having trouble with issues related to your spine, you might want to give a Stockbridge GA chiropractor a call.

Chiropractors are the gatekeepers of back pain. As we get older, we develop osteoarthritis, spinal stenosis and degenerative disc disease. (Spinal stenosis is why some old people walk hunched over). Our spines suffer from obesity, poor posture, a tendency to sit all the time, stress, etc.

This type of pain can become debilitating and require surgery, which is not always a success. Surgery is also extremely expensive and can lead to a lot of lost work time for the patient. Some people take drugs to lessen the pain temporarily, but this can result in addiction to prescription medication and does not solve the back problem. Many find the services of a good practitioner very helpful.

Chiropractic adjustment can actually resolve the root cause of the pain and can help you avoid surgery. A chiropractor also has the experience and training needed to help with the bad habits that cause back pain in the first place - providing advice on ergonomics for workstations and exercises that strengthen the core and support the spine.

These slow the normal age-related degeneration of the spine - although even young people, especially athletes, can benefit from chiropractic care. Besides, young people need to be educated on correct lifting and posture to build habits that then last a lifetime. Also, some young people suffer from scoliosis, which may need chiropractic experience to reduce pain. Improving spinal health helps the entire body - especially as back pain can preclude exercise which can then put you into a spiral of weight gain and loss of mobility which can end in permanent disability.

Even people who have not experienced back pain can benefit from a visit to a chiropractor to get advice on spinal health and how to keep your back healthy - so consider making an appointment today.
