Osteochondrosis of the lumbosacral or other parts of the spine is faced by more than 90% of people. In this disease, the intervertebral discs reach most of the blow. They collapse, going beyond the space allotted to them. This leads to pain when the deformed disc begins to compress the nerves.
In non-scientific words, osteochondrosis is spinal wear. In modern life, the load is different in different parts of the spine. Therefore, something wears out quickly (in -30-40 years), something wears out slowly (in 50-70 years).
With sedentary work, osteochondrosis most often affects the lumbosacral region. We talk about them and their treatment in this article.
Why is osteochondrosis inevitable?
The spine is built to withstand huge loads. But because of the vertical posture, he works all day without interruption. In addition, the slope immediately increases the load on a given section several times. And when you sit, lean forward, your spine experiences constant colossal pressure. And the person does not feel this overload. This is the first reason for the appearance of osteochondrosis.
The second and more dangerous is spasm of the back muscles. These muscles are able to stay tense for hours - for example, to keep your back straight all day. Hands are not capable of such work. Try tightening your fists tightly for at least 10 minutes, then relax. You will feel pain. And the back muscles have a different structure - they are toned. Because of this, this area suffers from cramps. And he doesn't depend on himself.
A person may not feel the spasms of the deep muscles of the back, but at the same time foci of overload are formed. At these points, the spine is continuously stretched in one direction — downward or horizontally. This causes osteochondrosis or scoliosis.
Osteochondrosis is more common in the lumbosacral region than in others. This area suffers from overload primarily during sedentary work.
How to treat at home effectively?
Effective treatment of osteochondrosis of the lumbosacral spine at home is possible. However, it should be understood that this disease is chronic and it is not possible to completely get rid of it. But you can remove all the negative symptoms in the form of pain, fatigue, and "forget" that you have this problem.
Also keep in mind that osteochondrosis occurs before the age of 40 due to lifestyle. And without changing your life, you need to go through therapy regularly - every 2-3 months. The most effective and cheapest way to do it yourself at home.
Treatment should be based on normalizing and strengthening muscle function. You must first remove the cramp (this is the cause of osteochondrosis of the chest). To do this, you can use a series of exercises with the help of a device for complex correction of the spine.
The device is based on autogravity technology. The point is that the force of the impact is determined by one’s own weight. This allows for safe exercise at home.
The exercises with the device are relatively simple - you have to lie on each spine one at a time and lie still for 3 minutes, trying to relax as much as possible. The whole procedure takes a maximum of half an hour. It is important to develop the entire spine, as only complex therapy can be effective.
The device relieves seizures, improves blood circulation and restores intervertebral discs due to 2 actions:
Activation of proprioreceptors. This is the most effective muscle relaxant. Proprioreceptors are active in the rest of the muscles and are passive at the moment of tension. That is, their forced activation relaxes the muscle.
Stretching the muscles and spine. The device lifts the spine slightly off the floor. This removes the load from the intervertebral discs, allowing them to heal. The distance between the vertebrae increases, the protrusions and hernias receding. Raising the spine allows the muscles to be stretched, leading to their relaxation. The device is recommended by fitness trainers, osteopaths, neurologists and chiropractors. They are also actively sold in Slovakia, Spain, Mexico, France, the United States and the Czech Republic.
