Posture Therapy For Back Pain Singapore

3 Little Known Causes of Chronic Back Pain

(And What You Can Do About Them)

From: Jonathan Wong, Director, Genesis Posture Therapy

To readers who suffer from back pain:

Did you know that 80% of adults experience back pain during their lifetime.

Have you wondered why some people are able to avoid back pain, while for others, it is a daily struggle to move pain-free?

Some people slouch in their chairs, hunch over a computer all day, never exercise, and eat all kinds of unhealthy food. Yet, they are free from back pain.

Others try to exercise regularly, stretch, sit upright, buy expensive ergonomic office chairs and eat healthily. Yet, their nagging backaches never seem to go away.

They may even get a painful slipped (herniated) disk injury simply from sneezing or picking up a light object.

I too, was one of those people who had unexplained back pain despite doing almost everything I could to live a healthy life.

After years of study, I now understand why this happened to me, and could happen to anyone.

From my observations of our 10,000 clients at Genesis Gym Singapore and in-depth studies with our overseas Posture Therapy mentors, I have discovered three little known secrets why even the healthiest people may have back pain that never goes away.

Secret No.1 - Your Feet Are Imbalanced

Almost everyone with back pain has imbalances in their feet

If your feet do not have perfect arches, or have imperfect muscle function, you are likely to have back pain. To help you understand why, take this simple test.

Stand upright, with your feet shoulder-width apart. Keep your knees and hips straight - i.e., don’t bend at the waist or knees.
Lean forward slowly until you are about to tip forward.
Take note of whether your weight shifts to the inner or the outer part of your feet.
It should shift to the inner part of each foot.
Now do the opposite. Lean backward slowly.
Your weight should shift to the outer edges of your feet.

When one arch is "lower" that side of your body will lean forward. All day.

Imperfect feet mean that your body is leaning too far back, or too far forward for many hours per day. Your back will take more strain. And over time this leads to a much higher occurrence of back pain. In addition, your spine will be out of position leading to greater risk of a slip disk. If you already have a history of back pain, imperfect feet prevent good alignment which prevents correct healing.

Secret No.2 - Your Eyes Are Imbalanced

Symmetrical eye tracking is critical in giving your brain the correct information needed to align your body?

Do the following simple test:

Place a pen vertically at the tip of your nose
Focus your eyes on the tip of the pen
Check if your eyes look more like the top or bottom pictures

(If possible, get someone to take a picture of you doing it)

Poor Eye Tracking - One eye is unable to turn inward to focus on the tip of the pen

Good Eye Tracking - Both eyes are able to turn inward evenly to focus on the tip of the pen

The top picture of unbalanced eyes is from a young female client who suffers from scoliosis (curved spine) which is one of the more severe back problems.

If your eyes do not track symmetrically, your brain will be confused. It won't know how to align your shoulders and hips. This misalignment adds to the stresses on your spine and back.

Secret No.3 - Skin problems are affecting your back alignment

Tiny sensors in your skin can get damaged

Did you know that your skin has tiny sensors that give information about your posture? If these sensors are damaged by an injury or surgery that cuts the skin, your brain will get incorrect signals about your alignment.

Imperfect alignment again puts more stress on your back. Preventing back pain from healing, and increasing injury risk.

Below is a picture of a client who had liver surgery. After the surgery, he had a large scar which affected his posture. He eventually suffered from a slipped disk.

For ladies, the most common cause of this is "C-Section" surgeries from childbirth.

How can you remove back pain permanently?

The fact is, back alignment is controlled by the subconscious parts of our brain – much like balance, heart-beat, and breathing.

This part of the brain sends signals to our muscles to align our back. It is not possible to “try harder” to have a well aligned back.

To change alignment, we have to change the way our brain perceives what perfect alignment is.
