Back Pain Relief News

By the actual nature of the word - chronic back pain relief - people believe that the task is almost impossible. That because back pain has been present for months or years it will take longer to heal.

In fact chronic back pain is as easy as normal regular short term back pain to remove. Why?

If you treat all back pain as if it is was an acute episode then it heals quickly. Most people change their approach because pain has become chronic. However back pain whether there for a day or two or for years, is still caused by the same elements.

You have muscles that are tight, others that are weak, joints not moving correctly and your pelvis out of balance. The one big difference is nothing to do with the mechanisms, it is something different you must change.

The one thing that allows back pain to become chronic is habit. Your body has become accustomed to having pain and now believes it to be normal.

Chronic back pain relief must therefore change the bad habits to good, along with removing the elements creating your back pain.

Habits are easy enough o change. All it requires is a daily application of techniques to train the body to stay pain free. Nothing more and nothing less.

This asks a big question - can practitioners remove chronic back pain?

It takes 31 days to form a habit and it takes 31 days to remove it. For a practitioner to help with your chronic back pin relief they must work 31 days in a row to break the habits that have formed.

Do you know of any practitioner that will do this? Could you afford this type of treatment?

This is why the best chronic back pain relief techniques are those you learn yourself. Techniques to use at home at your pace, to train your body to become free of back pain.

These same techniques must remove all the elements that cause your pain. Yes, you must stretch tight muscles, strengthen weak muscles and get your joints and pelvis back into balance.

Do this and your chronic back pain relief is guaranteed. It is the habits that is the main element to change, back pain is the same when it is acute or chronic, it is only the habits that are different.

Why do I call it a stiff neck plague? In today’s world the amount of neck pain is increasing, it will usually start with a stiff or sore neck and then as you do nothing about it, build until you have neck pain.

The incidence of neck pain has dramatically increased over the years. Lower back pain is always though of as the most common form of back pain. Yet how many times do you get a tired or stiff neck, which then eases quickly and you do nothing.

At work as you sit at your desk, at home as play on the computer, as stresses build in life, or as you get tired – all of these can cause neck tension. You think it is normal because it happens so often.

Here’s something that will shock you…

PAIN IS NOT NORMAL!

Sorry for shouting, but it still amazes me why people put up with pain. I’ll give you an analogy I use often in my practice.

If you were sitting on the sofa watching TV and suddenly a fire alarm sounded in your home. Would you:

A) Keep watching TV because who listens to alarms anyway
B) Ignore it until it became really loud, because we all know that is when the real danger starts
C) Get off the sofa and put out the fire now before its’ too late

I’m pretty confident that most of you will choose option C as this is actually what you should do. Yet with back and neck pain, people choose option A often and B more often. Option C is a rare choice.

When you have a stiff neck it is an alarm saying you have muscles and joints that are out of balance. And like a fire alarm it only tells you that the problem is big enough to warrant your attention.

Pain does not tell you where the problem is, it is just the location of the ‘fire alarm’. Your stiff neck can be due to a tight upper back, or a lower back not moving well, or the neck itself. These are just the physical aspects, there are the stress and general health factors that could also be causing your pain.

So please, listen to the alarms, find the causes of your pain and then fix them now. Don’t wait until the alarm is so loud you need to call the fire brigade, or in neck and back pain the surgeon.

If you find the cause, balance the muscles and joints, improve your healing and recovery, then you can eliminate all those times when you get a stiff neck. You will also learn to remove all back and neck pain easily.

Most of you will already know that stress causes back pain, you probably have had a few occurrences of it. But this is a common question I get asked in my practice. It also helps to understand more about why back pain in general occurs.

Hopefully you know by now that back pain is created by both muscle and joint tension. As these become tighter, pain develops. In fact it is the accumulation of tension over time that causes the majority of back pain cases.

It is very rare for people to present themselves after falling down stairs, or being hit by an object. Most people wake up with pain, or do a ‘normal’ everyday activity to find pain arrives, or have down nothing at all and notice they feel stiff and sore.

Back pain has been shown by researchers to be an accumulation of “micro-injuries” over time. Insurance companies say the claims by people have related to injuries, are not severe enough to cause pain. They concluded it was many small injuries over time, not one incident that caused their pain.

What does this have to do with stress?

Stress does the same. It is not one large stress that creates back pain, but the day to day pressures of life. Stress allows muscles to tighten, as they tighten back pain develops. It is natural to tighten your muscles when you are under pressure.

You raise your shoulders, clench your teeth, scrunch your forehead and basically tighten every muscle in your body. The more stress you have or the more time you are under stress, mean the more muscle tightness.

So hopefully you understand that stress causes back pain, not because of the stress but the effects it has on your body. It is the accumulation of minor stresses as much as it is major upheavals.

The one MASSIVE factor I want you to therefore know is this…

Back pain relief is not just a physical process. If you want long lasting back pain relief, you must remove ALL the causes of your pain. Not just the physical, but you need to also learn how to reduce stress. The X-Pain Method teaches you an entire system that only takes a few minutes each day.

Did you know that there is one big, okay it is massive, error in back pain relief that literally stops it in its’ tracks. The error so catastrophic that you shouldn’t even start to relieve back pain if this occurs, you will fail.

By now you will heard over and over the poor success rates with back pain relief. The latest is that if you have pain now, only 25% of you will be pain free in one year. The rest are worse or just the same.

The biggest mistake made in back pain relief helps to understand why this occurs, as 75% of people report this to occur.

Okay enough jibber jabber, onto what this mistake is. Don’t be alarmed, it is actually very easy to fix.

The biggest mistake is confusion. It spreads from there, because confusion then leads to inaction, which is the mechanism of why people fail to relieve back pain. If you are confused on what to do, or how to do it, you don’t do it. (That’s a lot of do’s and don’ts)

Confusion occurs because although back pain is a complex issue, the solutions should be simple. If not, why would you even try to help yourself? The confusion comes from practitioners and those on the internet trying to help.

The language used adds to the confusion and the only reason people use the “jargon talk” is to either look important or knowledgeable, to confuse you, or to make you want to believe that you need their help because you don’t understand what is going on.

If you are confused about what causes your back pain, the steps to remove it, then you are likely confused about the actual techniques they will use or teach you.

Back pain is a complex issue, your pain occurs dues to many physical and stress factors. Physically it is caused basically by muscles and joints. Stresses range from your general health to emotional wellbeing.

I was asked by a patient recently, “what is the best chronic back pain relief“.

It is simple really; don’t let back pain become chronic. If you deal with your back pain when it first occurs, then chronic back pain will never occur.

Simple really, but for those with chronic back pain, not much help at all.

If you already are suffering with long term chronic back pain, then the answer is still very simple. You need to treat your back pain as if it was an acute episode.

Your body will always try to correct acute conditions. If you fall down and hurt your back more, the acute pain will settle but you are left with the lingering chronic back pain.

If your body believes pain to be normal it will not try to remove it. This is what happens with any chronic health complaint. Your body has accepted this as a common occurrence and has decided to not fight it.

You need to treat your back as if it was an acute episode.

To do this you must follow 5 simple steps…

First you need to identify exactly what is happening. What distortion patterns that exist in you spine. If you know where these are you have a target to focus on.

Then you need to remove any trigger points. These tender spots in your muscles can cause a lot of your pain. They can be sitting there for years without you noticing them. They can stiffen joints and refer pain.

Then you must balance your muscular system by reducing tension in tight muscles and building strength in the weak muscles. Strength improving must also include stimulating the nerve and blood supply to your muscles.

Next there is balancing your joints, especially your pelvis. The pelvis is the foundation to your spine and must be balanced if you want long term chronic back pain relief.

The last step is simple, you must keep using these techniques to become a habit. Chronic back pain is a habit and to remove that you must form a new improved habit.

To achieve this you need to use techniques regularly even once pain has gone to make sure your back stays in balance if not pain will return.

Chronic back pain relief is simple, change the bad habits to good, with the 5 simple steps.
