It is has been widely reported that 80% of our population will experience a back incident in their lifetime. That extraordinary number would make one wonder if the spine is designed to withstand the rigors of our work and daily activities.Considering the body conducts millions of precise functions perfectly every minute of every day and that the human body lives for over seventy years, it is hard to believe that the spine would be lagging behind in its functional evolution.
Yet what else could cause life-changing deterioration of the human spine in so many people? What is responsible for these breakdowns that cause overwhelming pain, high medical costs, days away from work, high workers compensation costs and in some cases complete immobility? Surely it has to be a complex and interwoven dilemma for it to have persisted for so long.
