Back pain is a humungous epidemic in the United States. It is a 44 billion dollar industry which is the leading cause of workmen’s compensation. As a back pain chiropractic specialist in Vero Beach Florida, I have seen how back pain has caused enormous suffering for a lot people affecting their jobs, lives and their families.
It is most unfortunate that 85% of the US population will experience back pain at some point in their lives. That means nine out of ten people. Four out of five adults experience back pain every year – causing 93 million workdays to be lost annually. Acute lower back pain is the leading cause of disability for people under 45 years of age.
Back pain is often caused by different factors, and may originate from the nerves, joints, muscles, bones, or other parts of the spine. 5-10 percent of the back pain that people experience becomes chronic.
There are many ways to treat chronic back pain, but most people often resort to surgeries, often thinking that this is the fastest way to go. Surgeries in the U.S are approaching 500,000 per year. Many of these surgeries are unsuccessful and the back pain returns or becomes worse.
Technology has brought us many advances in the area of back pain and chiropractic care. Spinal decompression is a safe, non-surgical procedure that has revolutionized chiropractic care. It is now very popular and has a very high success rate. And it is already locally available here in Vero Beach Florida
Preventative back care and wellness is of significant importance and should not be neglected. We must always take good care of our back. Back pain is common but there are a lot of options outside the operating room!
