Back pain is a prevalent and a multifaceted health concern characterized by discomfort or soreness in the upper, middle, or lower back. To comprehensively treat back pain, it is essential to understand the causes and contributing factors.

Causes

Back pain often results from a combination of factors such as injuries, poor posture, muscle imbalances, and spinal misalignments. Muscular strain, herniated discs, and degenerative conditions in the spine can also contribute to the development of back pain.

Understanding

The spine, a complex structure of bones, discs, muscles, and ligaments, plays a key role in providing support and facilitating movement. Muscular tension or spasms, compression of nerves, and inflammation are some of the mechanisms through which pain manifests.

Management

At Couve, managing back pain requires a multi-faceted treatment approach to the patient’s specific circumstances. Targeted exercises aimed at strengthening core muscles provide crucial support to the spine and alleviate strain. Couve healthcare professionals, including chiropractors and physiotherapists, all play a vital role in diagnosing and treating underlying issues.
