SUFFERING FROM BACK PAIN??
Keeping active and exercising is a key part of managing back pain:
* Exercise is effective:
Exercise can help with both acute and chronic back pain, and can help prevent future episodes. �
* Movement is important:
Staying active and returning to normal activities as soon as possible can help speed up recovery. In fact, too much rest can make back pain worse. �
* Exercise releases pain-relieving chemicals:
Exercise releases chemicals like endorphins, serotonin, adrenaline, and noradrenaline, which can help reduce pain and improve mood. �
* Exercise strengthens muscles:
Strong muscles support the bones and joints, taking pressure off them. �
* Exercise improves range of movement:
Keeping active helps the back maintain its natural range of movement. �
* Talk to a professional
�If you’re starting an exercise program after a back injury or due to ongoing pain, you can consult a personal trainer , physio therapist or other health care professional.
