When Your Relaxing Furniture Causes Pain
By Rachel Carver
It's the end of a busy day. You finally have a few minutes to relax. You drop into your favorite chair or spot on the couch and take a deep breath. You are excited to read a book, watch a show, or call your best friend.
But your favorite spot is not as relaxing as it used to be. Maybe your back hurts after sitting there too long. Or maybe you feel stiff when you stand up.
Fear not. Your neighborhood Joint Chiropractic team has some tips to get your relaxation back.
Replace It
We all have our favorite relaxation furniture in the house. However, this furniture does eventually wear out. Screws come out. Springs break. Padding deteriorates after heavy use.
If your favorite relaxation furniture is causing pain, it needs to be replaced. Shopping can be fun. Research some local furniture stores. Give some thought to what you want to buy. Spend some time trying multiple furniture options before you make your purchase. Couches and chairs need to be comfortable and properly support your body.
Head to The Joint Chiropractic
Maybe your favorite chair still has some life. In this case, The Joint chiropractors can look you over and determine the cause of your pain.
We can easily forget about posture when we relax. A comfortable position can curve your spine, which can cause pain and other problems.
Chiropractic adjustments are safe, natural, and drug free. The Joint chiropractors will gently manipulate the spine and other joints, finding subluxations. This can eliminate your pain, which will make it easier to relax.
Seek Regular Chiropractic Care
Our backs help us do pretty much everything. We can sprain ligaments, strain muscles, and rupture discs. Movements we do not think about, such as poor posture in our favorite chair, can make our relaxation time painful.
Doctors of chiropractic also address neck pain, knee pain, and headaches. Regular chiropractic care reduces pain, improves range of motion, and makes it easier to carry out our daily tasks.
Don't let your back or joint pain go untreated. Medication will only give you temporary relief. And temporary relief will not help you relax.
