Osteochondrosis of the lumbosacral spine - symptoms and treatment

Osteochondrosis of the lumbosacral area or other parts of the spine is something that over 90% of people will have to deal with. In this disease, the intervertebral discs bear the brunt of the blow. They collapse, exceeding the space allotted to them. This leads to pain when the deformed disc begins to compress the nerves.

Not scientifically speaking, osteochondrosis is the wear and tear of the spine. In modern life, there is a different load on different parts of the spine. Therefore, something wears out quickly (in -30-40 years), something slowly (in 50-70 years).

With sedentary work, osteochondrosis most often affects the lumbosacral region. It is about him and his treatment which we will talk about in this article.

Why is osteochondrosis inevitable?

The spine is structured in such a way that it can withstand enormous loads. But due to the upright posture, he works non-stop all day. In addition, the slope instantly increases the load on a given part by several times. And if you sit down, leaning forward, your spine undergoes permanent colossal pressure. And the person does not feel this overload. This is the first reason for the appearance of osteochondrosis.

The second and most dangerous is a spasm of the back muscles. These muscles are able to remain in a state of tension for hours, for example to keep the back straight all day. Hands are not capable of such work. Try to clench your fist tightly for at least 10 minutes, then open it. You will feel pain. And the back muscles have a different structure: they are toned. Because of this, this area suffers from spasms. And he himself does not pass.

A person may not feel a spasm of the deep muscles of the back, but at the same time foci of overload are created. At these points, the spine constantly pulls in one direction: downward or in a horizontal projection. This causes osteochondrosis or scoliosis.

Osteochondrosis in the lumbosacral region occurs more often than in others. This area, first of all, suffers from overload during sedentary work.

How to be treated effectively at home?

Effective treatment of osteochondrosis of the lumbosacral spine at home is possible. At the same time, it should be understood that this disease is chronic and it will not be possible to completely get rid of it. But you can remove all the negative symptoms in the form of pain, fatigue and "forget" that there is this problem.

Also remember that before the age of 40, osteochondrosis appears due to lifestyle. And without changing your life, you will have to undergo regular therapy, once every 2-3 months. The most efficient and economical way to do it yourself at home.

Treatment should be based on the normalization of muscle function and their strengthening. First you need to remove the spasm (it is the main cause of thoracic osteochondrosis). To do this, you can use a set of exercises using a complex spine correction apparatus.

The device is based on autogravity technology. Its essence lies in the fact that the force of the impact is determined by the very weight of the person. This allows you to exercise safely at home.

The exercises with the tool are relatively simple: you need to lie down one by one with each spine on the tool and lie still for 3 minutes, trying to relax as much as possible. The whole procedure will take no more than half an hour. It is important to train the entire spine, as only complex therapy can be effective.

The device relieves spasm, improves blood circulation and restores the intervertebral discs thanks to 2 actions:

Activation of proprioceptors. It is the most effective muscle relaxant. The proprioceptors are active at rest of the muscles and passive at the moment of tension. That is, their forced activation causes the muscle to relax.

Stretching the muscles and spine. The device slightly lifts the spine off the floor. This removes the tension from the intervertebral discs, allowing them to heal. The distance between the vertebrae increases, the protrusions and hernias are withdrawn. In addition, lifting the spine allows you to stretch the muscles, which leads to their relaxation. The device is recommended by fitness instructors, osteopaths, neurologists and chiropractors. It is also actively sold in Slovakia, Spain, Mexico, France, USA, Czech Republic.
