Good posture can be successfully acquired only when the
entire mechanism of the body is under perfect control. - Joseph Pilates
No wonder we were always admonished
to stand up straight! Posture matters. Eugene back pain patients know this. Rethwill Chiropractic Clinic makes
certain that they do! Poor posture and back pain are often seen together. Rethwill Chiropractic Clinic treats them
together. Rethwill Chiropractic Clinic and our Eugene chiropractic patients see improvement in one often is followed by improvement in
the other.
POSTURE AND Eugene BACK PAIN
Many considerations affect how posture and Eugene back pain are
related. The whole mechanism of the body really
is at work as Pilates suggests. Researchers write
that poor posture is reported to alter
joint position and cause pain, like back pain. Musculoskeletal
back pain is improved when postural issues are corrected.
(1) Recent research states that even patients with plantar heel pain have more low back pain as well as higher rates of low
back pain disability due to decreased foot and
ankle function. (2) When one leg is shorter than the other, hip pain
is recorded to appear on the longer leg side.
Sciatica (leg pain) and disc protrusion do as well. (3,4,5) Leg
length inequality alters posture and may produce
back pain. Rethwill Chiropractic Clinic addresses all of these issues with chiropractic care options like spinal
manipulation, exercise and sometimes orthotic lifts for
all of our Eugene
back pain patients.
TREATMENT FOR POSTURE RELATED BACK PAIN
A basis of the Eugene chiropractic
treatment plan for patients with Eugene back pain and postural
issues is often manual therapy spinal manipulation (after
a thorough examination, of course!). Rethwill Chiropractic Clinic chooses
this option as spinal research shows that it
is effective accompanied by
posture correction. Manual therapy treatment enhances
posture improvement and low pain reduction more notably
than low back massage. (6) Three treatments of manipulation improved
posture control and decreased pain in a female patient with low back pain and altered balance. (7)
Rethwill Chiropractic Clinic uses posture-correcting, pain-reducing Eugene
chiropractic care.
