At some point in our lives, we get back pains and this is something we cannot avoid. This may be caused by an accident, a sports injury, a congenital condition such as scoliosis, or it could be because of a sedentary lifestyle. Our back pains are usually caused by routine work and repetitive tasks. Imagine sitting at your office for 8 hours and sometimes, even more, just to finish your tasks for the day or if your work demands strenuous activities such as lifting and carrying heavy objects, this can result in muscle tightness and tension which then causes backache. One way to preventing back pain is to focus our attention on improving our posture.
