There is a new back stretching chair Ergositter from Sweden I us, to keep my spine pain free.
When I use the chair I feel how my lower spine stretches out and that keeps my spine in a good health. I hope that my comments can help other who is suffering from low back pain. Here is a link that explains how it works: http://ergositter.com/en/animering_en.htm greetings from Sweden. Tommi Wallinus
There also needs to be more Pain Management doctors set up across this country. Regular doctors do not know how to manage "Chronic Pain Patients" properly. People don't realize that "chronic pain" feels very different than "acute pain" signals in the body. Regular family doctors don't realy know how to treat "chronic pain" patients properly. Pain management doctors do one thing, "PAIN MANAGEMENT", that's their speciality field of medicine. We need more of them in this country!
I must mention that my back was injured while I was working in a nursing home as a Nurses Aide when I was injured. My back pain was in no way from a sedentary lifestyle. I kept working for the next 10 years after I was injured while going through all my treatments and only taking off work to recover from the surgeries. Not everyone's back pain is from a sedentary lifestyle, most are caused from a work injury like mine. A small % is from a sedentary lifestyle.
Four years ago I recieved my very first Medtronics Implant, that one only lasted until recently. I have just now had the newest version of Medtronics Restore Ultra Implanted 3 weeks ago, this one is working even better than the first implant I had. My pain has gone from a 9 down to a 3-2 level. This one will last now for 9 years by recharging it, how wonderful science has become. I highly recommend this for anyone with "chronic back pain". It's a miracle machine!!
Some of these are really interesting treatments for severe back pain issues, but prevention is better than cure. With more of us living sedentary lifestyles it's vital that people improve their posture. I developed back pain a few years ago through sitting badly at my computer . I developed award-winning personal posture coaching software to deal with this by reminding me whenever I was sitting badly. There's a free trial on my website: www.postureminder.co.uk/backpain
