Good posture can be successfully acquired only when the
entire mechanism of the body is under perfect control. - Joseph Pilates
No wonder we were often cautioned
to stand up straight! Posture matters. McHenry back pain patients are
quite familiar with this. OrthoIllinois Chiropractic makes sure that they do! Poor posture and back pain are often seen together. OrthoIllinois Chiropractic treats poor posture and back pain
together. OrthoIllinois Chiropractic and our McHenry chiropractic patients find
that improvement in one often is followed by improvement in
the other.
POSTURE AND McHenry BACK PAIN
Many issues influence the relationship
between McHenry back pain and posture. The whole mechanism of the body truly
is at work as Pilates suggests. Researchers point out
that poor posture is reported to modify
joint position and cause pain, like back pain. Musculoskeletal
back pain is bettered when postural issues are fixed.
(1) Recent research reports that even patients who
experience plantar heel pain experience more low back pain and higher rates of low
back pain disability because of reduced foot and
ankle function. (2) If one leg is shorter than the other, hip pain
is recorded to occur on the longer leg side.
Sciatica (leg pain) and disc protrusion do as well. (3,4,5) Leg
length inequality affects posture and may trigger
back pain. OrthoIllinois Chiropractic addresses all of these issues with chiropractic care options like spinal
manipulation, exercise and sometimes orthotic lifts for
our McHenry chiropractic patients.
TREATMENT FOR POSTURE RELATED BACK PAIN
A foundation of the McHenry chiropractic
treatment plan for patients with McHenry back pain and postural
issues is often manual therapy spinal manipulation (after
a thorough examination, of course!). OrthoIllinois Chiropractic selects
this option as spinal research indicates that it’s effective accompanied by
posture correction. Manual therapy treatment enhances
posture improvement and low pain reduction more significantly
than low back massage. (6) Three treatments of manipulation improved
posture control and reduced pain in a female patient complaining
of low back pain and altered balance. (7)
OrthoIllinois Chiropractic uses posture-correcting, pain-reducing McHenry
chiropractic care.
