WORLD SPINE DAY

Did you know…

* Low back pain is the single leading cause of disability worldwide, according to the Global Burden of Disease 2010.
* Back pain is one of the most common reasons for missed work. In fact, back pain is the second most common reason for visits to the doctor’s office, outnumbered only by upper-respiratory infections.
* Experts estimate that as much as 80% of the population will experience a back problem at some time in their lives.
* Most cases of back pain are mechanical or non-organic—meaning they are not caused by serious conditions, such as inflammatory arthritis, infection, fracture or cancer.
