According to The Lancet, low back pain is the number one source of disability globally. And, if you've dealt with low back pain in the past, you understand how much it can alter your daily life. Even simply standing up straight can feel like an incredibly impossible task. Because of how debilitating it can be, many top healthcare organizations have begun to publish recommendations for the best ways to manage low back pain. Their suggestions may surprise you.
The care provided by chiropractors ranks at the top of many leading healthcare recommendations to relieve low back pain. Movement-based strategies such as spinal adjustments, controlled exercise, and dynamic stretching are some of the most effective ways to reduce low back issues. Not only are movement-based strategies good at providing fast relief, but emerging research shows that they may be able to offer a preventative effect when continued over time. The days of taking drugs and medications for back pain are over. Prescriptions are now rarely recommended as a first option due to their dangerous side effects and lack of results.
