I’m not sure if age is catching up or what but I’ve been having a bout of aches and pain on my back and shoulders lately. Sometimes the pain can cripple me and I feel like I need a good massage to get rid of those knots! For me, massage therapy has be one of the better natural health remedies compared to taking any painkillers or medicine. Other alternative therapies would be rolfing or being treated by a good physiotherapist.
I did some research on lower back pain and found out that this is usually the result of a poor posture, an injury in the back, muscle imbalances, improper lifting or bending or extra body weight. Poor posture is the most common cause of back pain on lower right side. I believe my sitting posture in front of the computer for hours everyday may have contributed to this pain and discomfort. I recalled my rolfer telling me that a large number of people can alleviate their back pain by taking efforts to improve their posture. So seeking the advice of a chiropractor, a rolfer or a physiotherapist is helpful to deal with back pain issues.
An injury can also result in back pain. Although we can take steps to avoid any form of injury, it may still happen. That’s why some people have to take up disability insurance
for some protection coverage. Back pain resulting from any kind of injury can generally be rectified or its intensity can be reduced by undertaking proper stretching exercises. It is important that we take proper steps to keep the muscles in our body in a proper balance. An imbalance in our muscles can often lead to back pain on lower right side.
On the note of natural health remedies, conducting proper exercise is essential to maintain the balance amongst the various muscles in our body too. Sometimes we aren’t even aware of how we injure our bodies. It is essential that one lifts things in the correct way. One should bend from the knees and not from the waist to pick up things from the floor, irrespective of the weight of the thing to be lifted. Back pain on the lower right side can also occur when a person tries to lift excessive weight.
