Or is it a good option to prevent furhter injury? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kaljug Singh Posted August 22, 2011 Report Share Posted August 22, 2011 Oh, and was asking is it ok for belt during training? Does it limit training in any way? make the muscles weaker? Or is it a good option to prevent furhter injury? A belt will prevent the necessary strengthening of the core musculature. This in turn will increase the likelihood of future injuries. The advice of your medical professionals outweighs the above (i.e., if they say you need to wear a belt, then wear a belt). K. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1000 Posted March 16, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 16, 2012 Bhaji, just wondering how things were going with you. thanks for the respsonse. not too great. not come to a conclusion of the problem yet. have had mri scan too, came clear. seen a chiro as suggested, and goign around trying various treatments. not too great, i nbelive acupuncture may have given short term relief, but nothing major. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VanHelsingh Posted March 17, 2012 Report Share Posted March 17, 2012 My mother had a serious back problem which laid her off work for just under 2 years. She went around the houses and various doctors / specialists said she'd damaged her pelvis at the joints, and the rear bones just above the cocyx (sorry can't remember what they're called) had shifted downwards and inwards due to heavy lifting (for a female at least) at work. See a good osteopath. Trust me if you get better, the money it'll cost won't matter in the long-term when you're fit and healthy. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

osteopath Posted March 19, 2012 Report Share Posted March 19, 2012 Dear 1000, I am an osteopath on the Olympic medical team and see a range of people. Everyone is individual and there is no one fix which will work for everybody. 80% of us will experience back pain so you are not alone. The best approach is looking at all the factors which contribute to your back pain and then working through them to manage your pain. Examples of factors include Family history of certain joint conditions/back pain Lifestyle factors- weight, workstation set up, activity level, etc Structural- joint and muscle problems Psychological stresses- increase cortisone secretion in our bodies, amplifying any issues we have Its also important to have a way to self-manage the pain i.e what specific program helps you the most (this may include a neofoam lumbar support belt) If you've been to trained professionals and had no relief it may mean you problem is slightly more multi-factorial then what osteo's, physio and chiro usually deal with. the good news is if manual treatment has given you some relief it mean it is unlikely to be anything nasty. I am based in London, if you want you can call me at my clinic on 07546033238 for informal advice. There is absolutely no assurance that any statement contained or cited in an article touching on medical matters is true, correct, precise, or up-to-date and cannot substitute for the advice of your G.P. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
_singhni_ Posted April 17, 2012 Report Share Posted April 17, 2012 To OP my dad has similar back issues to yourself. However he tried everything from england hospitals privately to even spending months on end in india receiving treatment which included laying in ice-cube tubs for hours on end. Nothing worked so he went to see another specialist (he was going from specialist to specialist as the pain was just un-bareable. But he went to see a "highly" qualified doctor/specialist (in england) and this gorah doctor said to him "only your God who is so great can solve your back pains/issue as there is no cure". Since then dad stopped going to specialists etc but with mahrajis kirpa since he started doing more bani (his amrithari) his back pain has become "comfortable" enough for him to do average daily activities. Point been do as much paat as you can you'll feel your back issue lessen. Mafi for rant just wanted to make a point 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
