Healthy Spine

• Back pain is the leading spine problem impacting
  millions of working professionals every day
  around the world. It is the most common
  job-related disability and 80 of the people
  suffer from back pain at some point in their
  lifetime.
• Human back that is complex structures that are
  composed of bones, muscles, tendons, ligaments,
  and disks, which collectively work together to
  provide support, stability and flexibility to
  perform everyday movements. Any problem, be it a
  sprain, spasm, strain, tension or damage to any
  element of the spine can trigger back pain. These
  spinal problems tend to be caused by muscle
  weakness, muscle imbalance, poor mobility, poor
  biomechanics, and sedentary lifestyle. And taking
  proper care of your spine is found to reduce the
  incidence of the back pain later due to these
  problems.

3 Simple Tips for a Healthy Spine

• 1. Maintain a proper posture An improper posture
  can strain the back muscles, and stress the spine
  and given your propensity to adopt it every day,
  it can constrict blood vessels, nerves, muscles
  and also discs (sports). All the changes over
  time accumulate manifesting in the form of back
  or neck pain causing frequent problems whose risk
  can be greatly reduced by adopting a proper
  posture. If you are parent then the most
  effective change you can make is to help your
  child adopt a good healthy posture and make sure
  he sticks with it without falling back.

• 2. Stretching Hours spent in sitting position
  and sedentary lifestyle that follows can cause
  the muscle tension in the back which can be
  reduced using the proper stretching regimen.
  Performing simple stretched like back flexion,
  kneeling lunge, piriformis stretch can improve
  range of motion, mobility, and reduce the risk of
  back pain.

• 3. Exercise to strengthen core While stretching
  improve mobility and flexibility, exercise is
  important to fortify your core and back muscles
  to make them strong enough to take the pressure
  off the lower back. As abs and back muscles are
  the caveats of the majority of the patients
  worldwide it is important to strengthen then with
  a proper exercise regimen to reduce the chances
  of back pain and injury. And as a word of
  caution, we advise you to take help from a
  professional, if you are to start your exercise
  regimen since improper form can further stress
  the spine and lower back.
