Tearing up the Road Can Tear up the Back
By Tom Herrin
There are plenty of reasons people drive for miles each day. Those who do so as a choice likely are able to take the trip more leisurely. Those who must do so in order to get from home to work and back each day may find it a bit more grueling. This kind of driving is often tense as the driver must be constantly on the lookout for cars coming from all directions. Fast starting and stopping can end up with a lot of jolting around. Even the best of backs can end up sore and aching. If this kind of activity causes you to end up with pain in your back, a visit to a chiropractor may make the trip more pleasant.
The Back Runs Interference
No matter what people do in the way of activity, it may very well go through the back to get there. The back helps provide stability as well as movement. It also absorbs much of the shock that is dealt to the body. All of this jerking around can strain the muscles that support the spine. This can cause them to fail in doing their job of support. A joint dysfunction may occur in which pressure may be placed on a nerve and cause pain. It can end up making life miserable.
Chiropractors Can Treat the Problem
When people go to a chiropractor with back pain, the can expect to be given an adjustment in which the spine is gently manipulated so that the injured joint is restored to its optimal position when this happens, the pressure is taken off the nerve and the pain is relieved. Since this is all done naturally, there is no risk of addiction or side effects. No pain medication is needed. It could be the start of a healthy new lifestyle.
