Spine Health & Spinal Hygiene

The spine consists of three natural curves; the neck curvature or cervical spine, the upper back curvature or thoracic spine, and the lower back curvature or lumbar spine, all which make a slight c-shape when viewed from the side. The spine is an essential structure because it helps support the upright posture of humans as well as provide the body with flexibility to move and protect the spinal cord. Spinal health along with the new concept of "Spinal Hygiene" are important functional theories we cover in order to discuss the body performs at its fullest capacity. Dr. Alex Jimenez strongly indicates across his collection of articles on spine care, how to properly support a healthy spine. Spinal Hygiene is the new term used to indicate the need to perform basic exercises in order to keep the spine from deteriorating over time. These concepts are covered within this forum at length. We hope and pray the information serves you or someone you know well.

Yoga exercises, stretches, and postures work by warming up the body and strengthening the back muscles in order for the body to naturally hold the spine upright. Yoga also allows energy to fill up the body to get you through the day. For more information on the subject matter, please feel free to ask Dr. Jimenez or contact us at (915) 850-0900.

It is true Back pains and aches are the most common problems even the healthiest of us may experience on a daily basis. One in three persons will suffer back pain every year. There are many causes some obviouse some very inconspicuouse.

Office work, a lot of sitting down and lack of movement (or on the contrary – a lot of heavy lifting and straining your back) can significantly damage your health.

Looking after your spine and having a healthyback is essential for our overall health – these really simple exercises will help you combat back problems and strengthen your spine even if you do not have enough time to go to the gym regularly.
