Back pain doesn’t just hurt your body — it can impact your mental health too. Take care of your spine, take care of your mind!
🏵️🌸What are back problems?
Back pain affects 1 in 6 Australians!
Back problems are musculoskeletal disorders affecting the:
• Neck (cervical spine)
• Upper back (thoracic spine)
• Lower back (lumbar spine)
• Sacrum and tailbone
Back pain can be triggered by:
• Muscle or ligament strain
• Heavy physical work
• Weak core or back muscles
• Repetitive bending, lifting, twisting
• Poor posture or long periods of sitting
• Low physical activity
• Being overweight
• Aging
• Stress
• Conditions like arthritis, disc issues, osteoporosis
🌻🌸Research shows a strong link between chronic back pain and depression. Back pain can lead to:
• Irritability
• Worry about long term pain
• Feelings of helplessness
• Social withdrawal
When pain becomes persistent, it can lead to stress, low mood and even depression — and those feelings can make the pain feel worse.
🏵️🌻🌸How can chiropractic care help?
