Back Pain Relief In Roseville, Minnesota
Back pain is a very common reason why people seek treatment from their medical doctors and chiropractors. There can be many causes of back pain:
But, if you are seeking back pain relief in Roseville, Minnesota then the cause of your back pain likely involves one or multiple of the above noted causes. We have structures that are between each vertebrae that are called disks. On the back of each vertebrae there are two joints called facet joints. It is quite surprising how much stress sitting, standing, and bending actually puts on our disks and facet joints. The ideal stress distribution across your disks and facet joints would be as follows: 80% of the stress on the disks and 20% of the stress on the facet joints. However, there are many factors that can change the distribution of this stress.
Do you sit and work at a computer for your job? If so, you are similar to about 75% of the workforce in the United States. Over time, this can cause the abdominal muscles to weaken. When the abdominal muscles weaken over time it causes the pelvis to tip forward. The shift in the pelvis because of weaker abdominals causes a change in the distribution of stress across the disks and facet joints. Now, there is more stress on the facet joints and less on the disk. The facet joints are not designed to deal with this additional stress and over time this can result in back pain. Does this sound familiar to you?
If you are experiencing back pain one of the key ways to improve your pain is by having your pelvis and lower back adjusted by a chiropractor. The treatments improve the alignment of the lower back and pelvis resulting in less stress across the facet joints. This means less back pain for you.
