Footrests May Prevent Low Back Pain While Standing

Do you suffer from back pain in Fanwood?  Chiropractor Eric Chludzinski provides research on how a footrest may help you subside your back pain.

Past research suggests that some people are more likely to develop back pain during periods of prolonged standing. In a recent study, twelve participants were asked to stand for eighty minutes, resting one leg on an elevated footrest for one minute after three minutes of static standing. Of the six participants with a history of back pain associated with prolonged standing, only one reported feeling pain in their lower back at the conclusion of the experiment.
