Peter, 43, is an active man who prides himself on his fitness. He does a lot of jogging, cycling, yoga and of course plays active games with his 3 kids, aged 8, 11 and 13.

He was getting aware of a worsening pain in the lower back, which at times   seemed to spread into his buttocks and down his right leg. As a consequence that leg at times felt  weaker than usual, sometimes even numb.

These symptoms are typi­cal of a pinched nerve in the back. The nerves to the legs exit the spine in the lower back, so if they are pinched, pain, weakness or numbness in a leg may result. But how exactly does a nerve become pinched?

Our backs are made of many small bones called vertebrae, arranged in a vertical but S-shaped column. This shape helps in shock absorption and provides flexibility to our body, respectively back. Between one vertebrae and the next we have a soft cushion called a spinal disc. These disks also give our backs their flexibility and are an im­portant part in shock absorption.

But, as we get older, these discs may become damaged and bulge out or even rup­ture. At this point it is called a herniated or prolapsed disc. But if the damaged disc then begins to press on the spinal cord or nerves in the spine we can experience nerve pinching and pain which in severe cases can even lead to immobility.

In general symptoms like weak­ness, numbness or tingling are the result of nerve pinching. As this occurs most commonly in the lower back, to be precise in the area of the lumbar vertebra 4, 5 and sacral vertebra 1, the nerves to the lower limbs are affected, and hence that is where the symptoms are felt. The pain is often a rather sharp pain, sometimes it can also be felt as a dull pain and is called sciatica. This comes from the sciatic nerve which is mostly being pinched in this lower back when the described symptoms occur.

On examination we might find that a patient’s leg is weaker on the pain affected side and that the reflexes on this side are not as brisk. We would also expect that an area over the lower back where the nerve is pinched would be tender on touch.

Immediate therapy for sciatica includes rest, pain relief and avoiding ac­tivities that aggravate the condition. In order to relax the pain you can also take an anti inflammatory or a pain killer but you should as quick as possible see a therapist of your choice.

But what choices do you have?

Well there is of course your GP who will give you various options of pain treatment. Then there is physio therapy which might help given you are doing all the exercises on a regular basis for quite some time, even when you don’t feel the pain anymore. And chiropractic or osteopathic treatments which can be long and painful for your wallet and in some cases very traumatic for your body, depending how you respond to high velocity movement treatments and manipulation.

But now there is also a new treatment available called Dorn Spinal Therapy. This gentle but very effective treatment form comes from Germany and over there is now one of the most sought after treatment for any kind of back pain and for many people has proven to be the one and only treatment that has helped them overcome years of pain and unsuccessful treatments. Dorn Spinal Therapy is a holistic treatment which involves leg length balancing, balancing of the sacro-iliac area and alignment of the vertebrae. All in a non violent procedure and with very few treatment repetitions. For more information please go to www.backcaresolutions.net  Dorn Spinal Therapy is ideal when combined with massage therapy or any other treatments adressing muscular skelettal issues and the results speak for themselves. So why go to use drugs or other invasive treatments when there is a real alternative to fix a crook back.

The entire subject of yoga in relation to health is about various postures. For every disease, it can be wildly claimed that there is a posture prescribed. Ask any yoga enthusiast/teacher and he will not only vouchsafe for it, he will promise cure and give you proofs of cures!

And many a times, he is not wrong and his stories are believable.

Many postures in yoga are tricky and difficult at least in the initial practicing stage. When it is done effortlessly, that means you are perfect in that posture. And over a period of time, it is possible. The result of practice of any yoga posture on the first day is certainly joint pain. Keep up the practice and be regular. Good results are assured.

Slowly and steadily your body will also increase its capacity of resistance. Mentally you will become more stronger. Don’t be in a hurry- after all, it is your body and your precious bones are at stake.

It is well known that yoga postures not only relate to body fitness, they give path to spirituality as well. It tones up muscles and many internal glands. You will feel the flow of the vital energy and the importance of correct breathing! Any yoga exercise session starts with warm up exercises and poses like eye exercises and neck exercises, shoulder shifts and shoulder exercises.

Every Yoga pose, for example delivers concrete benefits. It is not possible to give the names of all the postures and related benefits on this web page but let us examine some asanas and their benefits, with anatomical focus on their therapeutic applications.

Tree Pose, for example, strengthens thighs, calves, ankles and spine; stretches the groins and inner thighs, chest and shoulders; improves sense of balance; relieves sciatica and reduces flat feet.

A mention may be made about some more important poses. Cat-Bidalasana, Mountain-Tadasana, and standing poses like Triangle-Trikonasana, Hands to Feet Pose-Pada Hasstana, Mountain-Tadasana, Standing Stretch-Ardha Chandrasana, sitting poses like Easy pose-Sukhasana, Lotus-Padmasana and many Inverted Postures and Balance Poses!

All these postures prove what meticulous care the ancient masters of yoga took to formulate these poses. Yoga postures take in to care of every part of the body and its movement in all possible directions. And every pose is related to the spiritual aspects as well. All these achievements were possible only because they had perfect understanding of the body in relation to the Spirit!

 So tell me what is the world’s most elaborate piece of engineering?

 If you guessed the Pyramids, Stone Henge, The Golden Gate Bridge or Taipei 101, you are way off the mark!

The answer is you!

This is because, unlike these other structures, your bony inner scaffolding has joints that help you move, not just in a straight line, but also swivel, tilt and slide.

And just like other engineering wonders, our bones and joints can be subject to various problems including wear and tear.

Back to basics

The lower back is the connection between the upper and lower body, and it bears most of the body’s weight. Because of this, it’s easily injured when we lift, reach, or twist.

Clinical Director of ack Trouble Group UK, Terry O’Brien, says we should all learn how to exercise and strengthen the spine because it’s the main support of the whole body. The abdominal muscles and back muscles are the joists that keep the body upright. It’s crucial to keep them toned because, if they are in poor condition, the spine has to bear more than its fair share of the load.

Good lifting techniques and posture can also reduce the risk of back problems, but the reality is that almost everyone has low back pain at one time or another. The good news is that most low back pain will go away in a few weeks with some basic self-care.

Experts recommend avoiding bed rest, especially for more than a day because staying active and continuing your usual activities, within tolerable pain limits, helps recovery. However, when back pain becomes disabling it may be the sign of more significant problems, such as a prolapsed invertebral disc, pressure on a nerve causing sciatica, a stress fracture, and arthritis of facet joints.

“In the majority of cases,” Terry says, “I reassure patients that simple exercises will help them learn to live with it and manage it. If the condition is more serious, of course, (less than five per cent of cases) surgery may be required.”

Hips and knees

Terry O’Brien says, “The knee is one of the most common joints to be affected by injury and in a society such as ours where a significant number of contact sports are played you would expect to see a high incidence of knee injuries.”

The most vulnerable part of the knee seems to be the menisci; two half-moon shaped pieces of cartilage attached to the knee joint. They provide stability and absorb much of the impact of walking, running and jumping. Because complete removal of a meniscus can result in progressive arthritis in the knee in a younger patient, the emphasis now is on preservation.

It is clear that some wear and tear contributes to degeneration of the joints, but it’s not exactly clear why some people develop specific types of arthritis, or seem to be susceptible to the effects of wear and tear. Early diagnosis and treatment will reduce progression, and this is important but sometimes only joint replacement will provide the desired improvement in symptoms. Tens of thousands UK residents have joint and knee replacements each year.

Five ways to take a load off your joints:
