Apart from the questionable practice of masking pain by dependency upon potent medication, it is important to recognise that the potential to recover from the lower back pain remains extremely limited when the lower back structure remains compressed by virtue of various repetitive weight-bearing activities.
Provided the de-compression is routinely and systematically performed, the human spine possesses an impressive capacity to recover in an environment of consistent de-compression. This can be the case even when the effects of spinal compression have had irreversible consequences.
It is important to note that effective restoration of the three movement functions of lateral rotation, lateral flexion, and mid-line flexion/extension is pivotal to the sufferer's recovery even when sufferers have refrained from at least one of these movement functions due to the experience of pain in attempting that function/s. Within an appropriate regime, the essential movement functions can significantly and necessarily be restored. It is important to note that effective restoration of these three movement functions is pivotal to the sufferer's recovery.
Back pain relief can be achieved, on average, in 15 minutes per day, much of which is necessarily done prior to the spine becoming weight-bearing for the day, however it is vital to embrace the fact that this can only be achieved via a protocol that respects the inherent spinal complexities, yet done so in a simple and workable way within the lifestyle and timeframe of the sufferer. We should always remember that there are enormous benefits to be gained by de-compressing the spine each day before weight is applied to the lower back.
