Dear Doc: I’m really concerned! Everyone I know, including myself, has suffered from back pain. What can we do to stop this epidemic?

Dear Concerned: Back pain is an epidemic! Consider these sobering facts:
• 85% of us will experience disabling back pain at some point during our lives.
• Disability from back pain is increasing faster than any other form of disability, infact 14 times faster than the rate of population growth.
• Back pain is now the leading cause of disability and health cost in adults aged 30 - 50, the prime work force.
• In workers’ compensation plans, 30% of all claims are for back injuries, more than twice the frequency of any other category of injury.

Good spinal health does not just happen, it is something you work at. The key is prevention. Keep your back fit through regular aerobic and specific strengthening exercises, think correct posture at all times and become ergonomically aware. As correct spinal alignment and function is the most important factor in maintaining a healthy back, get checked and adjusted regularly by your chiropractor. ...

Awareness of spinal health should begin in childhood. Good postural habits, diet and exercise are fundamental to the optimum development of young spines. However, spinal health for children should not end here. As many adult spinal problems begin as a result of childhood injuries, chiropractic check-ups for children can help avoid numerous future spine-related health problems.
