Advice from the Doctor


"Sleep on your back to reduce any curve in your spine, and always sleep on a firm surface."

"Smoking can be a contributor to your back pain. Smoking can constrict blood vessels and reduce blood flow, causing degeneration to the spine and discs."



"Pin-straight posture actually makes your lower back tense up. The best sitting position is one in which your lower back retains its natural curve, while your upper back stays straight."

"Our bodies are made up of approximately 70% water. Getting enough water reduces stiffness. Drinking plenty of water enhances the height of intervertebral disks."



"If you sit for long periods of time, make sure to get up from your chair as often as you can. Sitting takes a toll on the spine and compresses the disks, leading to disk problems. "
