New Physical Therapy Relieves Back Pain

2 New Physical Therapy Relieves Back Painwww.EmploymentCrossing.com

According to WebMD a new physical therapy technique may relieve back pain even when all other treatments fail.

Souchard’s global postural re-education — or GPR for short — employs a series of gentle movements to realign spinal column joints, and strengthen and stretch muscles that have become tight and weak from underuse.

“GPR corrects the patient’s posture and decompresses the spinal canal,” says Conrado Estol, an MD and PhD, of the Neurologic Center for Treatment and Rehabilitation in Buenos Aires, Argentina.

He presented his study at the American Academy of Neurologys 57th Annual Meeting in New Orleans.

“In our study, nine in 10 people with chronic back pain due to disc disease significantly improved and were able to return to their usual daily activities — usually within five months.”

A person with chronic back pain is in too much discomfort to perform the exercise on his own. A physical therapist guides the process, stretching the muscles along the spinal column while the patient is in the specified positions.

The treatment included two GPR sessions during the first week, then one session a week for an average of five months. Participants also practiced breathing techniques and were given a home exercise program.

Doctor Albert, assistant professor of neurology at Yale University says a success rate of 90 percent in patients with chronic back pain “is very unusual and begs for further investigation.”

Product Description
Studies by the Better Sleep Council show that 85% of the American Population sleep on their sides. The Back Buddy is mainly designed for side sleepers. Back Buddy knee pillows support the leg, hips, knees, & lower back. This can help to relieve discomfort from lower back pain, sciatic pain, arthritis and gout.

This firm polyurethane foam cushion slips between your knees to support your hips, legs, knees and lower back the whole night through. Keeps you as comfortable and relaxed as possible. Thus, lets you sleep more soundly, get the rest you need and awaken refreshed and ready for a new day.

The Back Buddy Knee pillow is made from 100% Polyurethane foam. Unlike Memory foam it stays firm and uniform without collapsing. And our unique Ridge Vent System allows air to flow more easily to help reduce heat buildup.

Many hospitals and rehabilitation clinics suggest using a knee pillow after a knee surgery, hip surgery, or even back surgery. Knee pillows are also perfect for women who are pregnant.

EASY TO USE: Simply place the Back Buddy Knee Pillow between your knees or lower thighs (which ever is more comfortable) and you will notice a significant difference right away.

Includes a Free Pillow case. Pillow cases are sleeve style non-zippered cases made from a white non-woven poly blend fabric. So unlike those snug-fitting zipper covers they won’t shrink up and there is no pesky zipper to bother you while you sleep.
