Edinburgh Osteopathic Surgery's Back Care Tips


Our Top 10 Tips for Effective Back Care

  1. For back pain, better to see your osteopath earlier than later.
  2. Take regular exercise - your osteopath can say what's right for you.
  3. Hours in one position can cause problems - avoid 'computer hump'!
  4. During repetitive tasks vary your rhythm and take frequent breaks.
  5. Adjust car seats and, on long journeys, take regular breaks to stretch.
  6. Pace yourself with heavy work like gardening - don't risk a disc!
  7. Watch children's posture - they shouldn't carry bags on one shoulder.
  8. During pregnancy osteopathy can help your body adjust to changes.
  9. Avoid strain when lifting - particularly small children and shopping.
  10. Seek advice on good back care from your osteopath.
