Today is World Spine Day – October 16th 2014

Our physios got involved in spine selfies to help raise awareness for World Spine Day. Spinal disorders, such as back pain, neck pain, scoliosis and disc disease to name a few are common. They can have a profound effect on a person’s overall health, impacting a person’s ability to work, to enjoy everyday activities and even disrupting healthy sleep patterns. Research has demonstrated that poor postures and inactivity can contribute to the development of back pain and other spinal disorders.Spinal pain is the second greatest cause of disability, as measured by years lived with disability (YLDs) worldwide and across most regions of the world (Lancet 15 December 2012). Physiotherapy can help manage symptoms and provide pain relief.
