A lot of people complain that they have

backaches or that their spine feels really

heavy. This is a very common ailment

among people above thirty years old.

However, it is not a good idea to take

drugs in this situation because of the side

effects medicine can cause. That is why

there are a few methods for back pain

relief.

Now when someone is suffering from this kind of ache, more often than not, the main problem lies within the posture of that person. People who frequently complain about backaches are usually the ones who are always slouching or arching their spine. So the first thing to do is to get used to sitting up straight all the time. Believe it or not, the occurrences of pains will lessen if one does this.

Sometimes sitting up straight does not

work straight away. So if the pain is too

unbearable, then one way to ease it is to

use a cold or hot compress. This soothes

the ache and allows one to continue

doing his daily routines with more ease.

However, a compress cannot exactly cure

the pain because it only lessens the

internal swelling. So the next best thing

to do is to get a massage. Masseurs deal

with these kinds of complaints every day.

Having a good massage will loosen the

cramped muscles of the back and take

away the stress. This will relieve the

backache.

In the long run, the best thing to do for these kinds of pains is to begin a regular program of exercise. Of course choosing the right kind of exercise is important because a workout that is too heavy and strenuous will just make it worse. Some light exercise routines like Tai Chi or Yoga which encourage slow, flowing movements and flexibility are great in preventing the occurrence of back discomfort.

Now if the pain still pursues, then one has

no choice but to pay a visit to the doctor.

Usually the doctor would provide some

painkillers or suggest therapy to the

patient, but only do this if it is too painful

to bear. If it can be healed naturally, then

it would be better.
