Let's have a healthy spine



Spine has many nerves, muscles, and ligaments that serve as connections to areas throughout our body, so keeping our back in top condition is one of the best things we can do for both our back and our overall health.
·                   
        Let spine really rest while sleeping.
While sleeping, all the structures in our spine that have worked hard all day finally have an opportunity to relax and revived. So we must use the right mattress and pillow which will support the spine so the muscles and ligaments can be stress-free and have a chance to become refreshed.

        Choose shoes carefully.
Walking for exercise or just to get going somewhere, the shoes you wear have a big effect on your back. They should be well balanced, flexible, and most certainly comfortable. Good shoes not only provide protection for your feet, but also a supportive base that helps the spine and body remain in alignment.

·                  Enjoy the benefits of massage.
Many people love a good massage to relax their muscles and relieve stress. Therapeutic massages not only improve flexibility and decreases tension, they also improve blood flow and make you feel good.

·                  Sit up straight—with support
The discs in lower spine are loaded three times more while sitting than standing, so long periods of sitting can often create or exaggerated painful back condition. The right office chair plays an important role in promoting good posture and supporting the natural curves of your back.

·         Specifically exercise abs and back.
One of the most important components of good spine health is exercise. Specifically, performing abdominal and back exercises will go far in helping to keep your spine healthy. These exercises are simple and can be performed in 20 to 30 minutes as part of a daily routine.

These are simple ways to help our spine and back stay in alignment and maintain a stronger, healthier you.
