Initial symptoms often include widespread muscle pain in areas such as the neck, back, shoulders, or hips. This can also include chronic headaches or back pain caused by prolonged improper sitting or even for women who have to wear high heels and stand for extended periods

The gist of chiropractic treatment involves aligning the bones into the appropriate positions to enable the body to heal itself from injuries. Some studies show that bone alignment may have beneficial effects in treating migraines, neck pain, headaches, chronic lower back pain, and cervical issues.

Basic prevention is easy and starts with adapting your working environment to be ergonomic. Find ergonomic accessories for your chair to ensure proper sitting posture. Also, remember to take breaks and walk to relax your muscles every hour. Avoid prolonged sitting to prevent muscle compression. If you experience chronic muscle pain, consult a chiropractor for an assessment before any treatment.

Chiropractic is a recognized medical science by WHO that focuses on anatomy and the integrity of the body’s structure. It’s often simply referred to as bone setting or bone manipulation. Also it emphasizes the nervous system and includes aspects of nutrition and vitamins.
