Is Looking Forward to an Easy Chair a Pain?

By Tom Herrin

Many people wrap up their work daily by anticipating the opportunity to go home and simply crash into that special chair or sofa that they see as a sort of fortress of solitude.  That may be a superhero reference, but they really do see it as a place of retreat.  Feeling cozy to them may be sinking down into the cushion of comfort, completely unaware that they may be paying the price in terms of back pain, oblivious to the connection between their comfy spot and the aches and pains they're feeling.  If that "safe place" for you ends up causing back pain, a visit to a chiropractor may put you back on track to a pain-free life.

Soft May Not Mean Sound

When people sit in those chairs and sofas that seem worn in just the right place so as to create a personalized space, it can place a strain on the muscles that are designed to help provide support for the spine.  Once the musculature loses its ability to provide support, the domino effect is that the joints of the spine become more vulnerable to injury.  A joint restriction may occur and pressure may be placed on a nerve.  This causes pain.  It can be one of those types of pain that can grow out of hand and become a much larger problem. The pain could be anywhere, not just be felt in the back.  

Chiropractors Can Treat Effectively

When people go to a chiropractor for pain relief, they may expect to be given an adjustment.  In this, the spine is gently manipulated so that the joint is restored to its optimal position.  When this happens, the pressure is taken off of the nerve, and the pain is removed as well.  Since this is all done naturally, there is no need for pain medication.  This means no risk of addiction or side effects.  The chiropractor may make suggestions regarding things that may be done to provide better support and avoid future injury.

Regular Visits May Be Part of a Healthy Lifestyle

Once people experience the relief that a chiropractor can provide, they often choose to have regular visits.  At The Joint Chiropractic, there are plans and packages that may help make this a reality.  No insurance is required, and because no appointments are necessary you can drop in at your convenience.  They have nearly 500 locations nationwide, and all are open days and evenings, weekdays and weekends.  If that easy chair is not so easy on your back, drop in at The Joint Chiropractic today and see what relief feels like.
