This You Can Try to Alleviate Back Pain

 Are you tired of waking up with back pain?

Are you looking for relief? 

Here are a few things we recommend you try at home to temporarily alleviate back pain:

Move: Movement of the spine in different directions can help muscles work, ligaments stretch, and work the discs between your vertebrae. Small controlled movements throughout the day for everyone, especially if they are experiencing back pain. 

Stretch: Stretching the muscles surrounding the back can help loosen the muscles and improve your range of motion. This can help reduce pain and stiffness. 

Ice: Ice decreases the inflammatory response your body puts in place to protect and help heal damaged tissues. Ice can often help things feel better, but also to move more and decrease swelling that can put pressure on nerves. 

Practice Good Posture:  Having good posture seems simple, but can impact back pain. Core engaged, chest out, shoulders back and down, and eyes straight ahead will drastically change your body's movement, pain pathways in your nervous system, and breathing. Improved posture often takes the pressure off your vertebrae you didn't know you had.
