Repetitive stress caused by actions such as typing on a computer and more acute trauma caused by events like an auto accident injury can both cause back pain. While most people will experience some sort of back pain at some point in time, there are several things you can do to avoid or reduce it. At Facca Chiropractic Clinic, we suggest:

Exercise. Those who get regular exercise have healthier spines and experience less back pain. Try a combination of stretching, strength training and aerobic activity. Thirty minutes a day at least five times a week is a good place to start.

Lose weight. If you are overweight, your spine is forced to support a greater mass than it was designed for. The strain can cause back and neck pain. Getting down to your ideal weight will cause less stress on your spine, and help you feel better.

Visit Dr. Facca. Chiropractic treatment can help reduce back pain. Dr. Facca will devise a regimen of treatment specially tailored to you and your symptoms. Regular adjustments can help you stay pain-free.

Practice good posture. When you slouch, you pull your back out of alignment, and put extra strain on the muscles in your back. Over time, this can cause excruciating back pain. By maintaining good posture, you will reduce the stress on those muscles.

Get a good night's sleep. A good quality mattress can make all the difference in the world. You should be able to lie in a natural position in order to avoid pressure and strain while you sleep. Also, make sure that you are getting enough sleep. Fatigue exacerbates pain. If you are not getting enough sleep, any physical maladies you are suffering will feel more acute.

Dr. Facca and the staff at our clinic in Royal Oak can help you develop a plan to eliminate and avoid back pain. We provide care to patients in the nearby communities of Ferndale, Birmingham, Beverly Hills, Troy.

A Royal Oak Chiropractor comments:

In an ongoing effort to educate and enlighten our Facca Chiropractic Clinic patients we have started this blog with the high hopes that it will provide a valuable up-to-date resource for our patients in the Royal Oak, Ferndale and Troy Michigan areas.

A warm hand also extends to our patients from Farmington Hills who bravely made the journey to our office during our recent inclement weather. It humbles us to know that our patients are dedicated to achieving total health and wellness by reaching out to our chiropractic clinic in Royal Oak, Michigan.

It is our patients who make our chiropractic clinic the success that it is. Because of you we have maintained our ongoing mission statement to promote optimal health and well being through the use of the most up-to-date equipment and technology used by chiropractors today.

Come in to our office on 2715 W. Webster Road in Royal Oak, Michigan and experience the miracle of the Pro-Adjuster. Technology first used by NASA is now available to help you increase your energy level and reduce fatigue, perform better at work and live life to its fullest.  This state of the art piece of equipment is credited with relieving back pain, neck pain, shoulder pain, and headaches. Pain free!

The recent weather here in the Royal Oak, Michigan area has no doubt taken a toll on our bodies. Shoveling snow has our backs strained, helping the neighbor push his car out of a snowy filled pot hole has our legs aching, and trying to balance ourselves on icy  sidewalks has our nerves stressed out to the max. Pain medication will only offer temporary relief, but a visit to the chiropractor can help with on-going pain relief that lasts long after your visit.  You can find comfort in knowing that Facca Chiropractic Clinic will be here waiting to restore your body back to total health and well being.
