YOUR PAIN ISN'T NORMAL AGING.... DON'T BELIEVE THAT
Everyday I hear this from my patients " I'm getting old" that's why my back or neck or knee or hip or shoulder or whatever hurts and I have no idea from where people got this wrong concept but WHY DON'T YOU AGE HEALTHIER?.
As we're living in an era with a lot of information but the main problem is "how to differentiate between what's right and what's wrong".
For example to know if Pain is really related to AGING or not we all drive cars so lets talk about that
You have an old car lets say model 2000 whatever car you like BMW or Toyota it doesn't really matter, but what matters is what do you do to keep it running without problems or issues? yes i hear you KEEP DOING REGULAR MAINTAINANCE.
How to apply this to our bodies? The answer is as simple as that keep doing regular maintenance
Regular maintenance for your body is to stay active and by seeing a physical therapist.
Lets put it this way if you go to the dentist once or twice a year to check your teeth and you use them to talk and eat only why don't you check your joints and muscles and you use them in everything even when you sleep
Lets wrap things up:
Back pain, neck pain, shoulder pain, knee pain or whatever pain youu have has no relation to aging but there is a cause for it, as long as this cause isn't treated the pain will exist
Physical therapists are movements experts who can take care of your muscles and joint and treat your not only that but also keep you healthy and make you age happier.
