Rehbilitating a 50+ Year Old Body:How to Improve Your Quality of Life

Do you suffer from back pain, knee pain, neck pain or other recurring pain? If so, the new FREE book I have for you could give you some ideas that will help rid you of your problem.

When people reach age 50 (and perhaps before) they begin to experience all sorts of pain and regular discomfort that they never did in their earlier years. Sadly, most seem to believe that this is inevitable, and there is nothing they can do about it. In most cases, this is completely wrong! Most of the time recurring pain is caused by a combination of things that can be corrected without resorting to surgery. Want to know more?

I have created a primer on how to deal with the type of pain that many people who are 50+ years of age experience. Most importantly, I give you some ideas on how you can fix some of the problems yourself, and perhaps significantly diminish the pain you have to experience.

This is not a thinly veiled add for pills or some other “magic” cure. It is a primer on what you need to know to solve your pain problems. It is yours for free because if it is possible for you to live without pain, or significantly reduce your recurring pain, I would love to see that happen. Your quality of life is negatively impacted by having to deal with pain on a daily basis. Often the solution to most people’s problems is much simpler than they thought.

You have nothing to lose but some discomfort. Get your FREE copy of this primer by clicking on the link below:

Five Tips to Help You Relieve Your Back Pain

If you suffer from even occasional back pain, here are five tips you can use that may give you relief. Back pain is usually associated with multiple causes. Here are some tips on things in your daily life that may be causing constant aggravation to your back.

If you have any or all of these problems, your back pain will continue even if you get treatments. The reason is, all of the problems noted below can constantly aggravate your condition even though you may be taking pain killers or getting other therapy. For any treatment to work, you have to deal with any source of constant aggravation.

1. Your mattress may be worn out. If you get up in the morning with a sore back, or a sore neck, you should look at how your mattress is supporting you during sleep. If the mattress or springs is sagging in the middle, it can put all kinds of unwanted stresses on your back. Sleeping in a position that puts extra stress on your back and neck can produce a lot of pain and stiffness. Some things you can do if your mattress does not support you well:

• See if rotating your mattress will give you a better sleeping surface. Flip it over, or simply rotate the mattress so that you are sleeping on a part that has not been used as much.
• Check to see if your inner springs are sagging and not giving you proper support. If this is the case, you can try rotating them.
• Go to a mattress store and check out new good sleeping surfaces. This will give you an idea of what you might have to do about either replacing your old mattress.

2. Check how your shoes are wearing down on the heels. Very often our shoes are the cause of back pain because our shoes wear in such a way that we don’t walk with proper alignment. Check the heels of your shoes to see if they are wearing down unevenly. This causes the alignment of your foot, knee and leg bones to be distorted. Bad alignment can lead to back pain.

3. Other shoe wear problems may be causing you pain. Check your shoes to see if the arch support is in good shape. Poor arch support can cause all manner of problems. Any sign that you are not walking evenly on both feet will be an indication that you are probably aggravating your back as well as your feet and legs. Shoes that don’t properly support you should be thrown out. All they are doing is hurting you.

4. Check the seat of your car to insure proper back support. Many older car seats do not provide decent support for the lower back. Poorly designed car seats can create constant pressure on the lower spine. Inevitably this will lead to problems. To correct this problem, you can use a folded towel or seat insert that will give you better support.

If you work in an office, you should check on the support provided by the chair you sit in all day. Most modern office chairs provide decent support for the lower back. It is always a good idea to move around regularly when sitting all day. It is also a good idea to try and sit with a straight spine (military posture) and not slump. Good posture while sitting will help keep you from putting unneeded strain on your lower back.

5. If you are overweight, you are placing a huge amount of extra stress on your feet, joints and spine. Being overweight is a problem that multiplies other health problems you may experience. Your own skeletal structure is built to carry a certain amount of weight, and additional weight may distort how you walk, lift and move. Because of this, people who have obesity problems, also have back problems. If you lose weight, you may find that the back problems diminish or go away entirely.

These are simple tips that you should consider if you have chronic back problems. One or all may apply to you.

If you have back problems or any sort, I cannot urge you strongly enough to order the free book available from Jesse Cannone called The 7 Day Back Pain Cure. You can order this book in the box on the right of this article. The price is FREE, and the value to you may be priceless. You will learn how to deal with a whole range of back issues, and find relief for your own particular problem.

Best of luck, and here’s hoping you can quickly rid yourself of back pain.

Never have back pain again?

Back pain is a constant threat for a huge percentage of people over the age of 40. I once was told by a doctor (who was treating my back problem) that around 80% of the men in the US over age 40 have at least one episode of significant back pain before they are 50.  This is scary…  As we age, the threat becomes even more significant.  For that reason, I have really cool offer for you that may save you decades of pain, or help you cure a problem that has persisted for a long time.

As a competitive weightlifter (and runner) over the years I have had the opportunity to be treated by some excellent sports medicine practitioners.  About thirty years ago I was being treated at the University of Washington Medical Center for a very painful recurring problem with my lower back.  In the course of that treatment, I was exposed to several of the pioneering treatments for back problems that are now in common use today. 

If you recall, I compete in powerlifting, and at age 70 routinely pick up well over 400 pounds in the deadlift.  This involves picking up a weight bar resting on the floor and standing erect with the weight held at arms length.  In practice I pick up weights from a rack that may go as high as 600 pounds.  I have absolutely NO back problems at all.  I am rarely even stiff and sore after a meet or a training session.  This is due in large measure to applying the rehabilitation strategies and back development programs in the FREE book I’m going to recommend to you below.

If you suffer from back pain, you MUST read this book.  It is called The 7 Day Back Pain Cure.   It is carammed with a great variety of analysis and advice for people who want to relieve their suffering.  When I read this book I felt that it was a concise collection of everything of value that I had learned about dealing with back problems over the past 30 years.  In addition, there were lots of other valuable insights that have been really useful to friends of mine who have back problems.
