Back Pain - The #1 Health Complaint
Back pain often attacks without warning. It can be sharp stabbing or dull ache that does not ease up.
What Causes Back Pain?
Back pain can result from: muscle and tendon strain and sprain; muscle tension, brought on by emotional stress, poor posture, brought on by weak or unexercised muscles, muscle spasms caused by over-exertion or over use. Back pain can be referred pain from some other problem in the body.
When bones along your spine (vertebrae) become misaligned even slightly, or their normal mobility becomes altered, sensory and motor nerves can be irritated or even damaged. This is known as a vertebral subluxation, or subluxation.
