BACK PAIN, HOW CAN IT BE TREATED OR PREVENTED?
POSTURE
“Posture is where one’s health begins” explains Mehernaaz.
Good posture enables complete respiration, improved blood circulation, efficient functioning of internal organs, a well-balanced musculoskeletal system, prevents muscular aches and pains and improves self-confidence.
Mehernaaz helps individuals to sit and stand upright through education on lifestyle habits, re-organization of their work station and a tailor-made exercise program.
WORK ERGONOMICS
Aligning your workstation and learning how to sit correctly is very essential to prevent and cure back & neck pain. Most of us spend hours seated in transport, offices, sofas, restaurants, etc. Mehernaaz considers this subject an important step in treating her patients.
NUTRITION
Nutrition is a key factor for good health. Poor nutrition can lead to deficiencies, disease and reduce stamina levels. Mehernaaz believes in natural organic sources of food to receive optimum nutrition and hydration.
For a healthy back and good digestion which go hand-in hand, drinking enough water and eating correctly are very essential.
