More than one third of the entire population regularly suffers from back pain. While so far mostly elders were endangered to suffer from back pain, the amount of younger people experiencing back strain steadily increases. The modern lifestyle is dominated by primarily sitting activities and shaped by general hecticness, two factors that substantially elevate the risk of getting back complaints and often lead to bad postural habits. Stress and physical inactivity form ideal preconditions for afflictions and secondary damage, like:
- Stiffness in shoulder- & neck areas
- Shoulder- & neck pain
- Back complaints
- Prolapsed discs
- Instability & blockades in the ISJ
- Hip problems (especially shortenig of the hip flexors)
- Knee pain
- Ellbow pain
- Wrist pain
- Weight gain
- etc.
