-- According to the American Obesity Society 64.5 percent of
Americans over twenty years old are overweight and 30.5 percent
are obese. These figures represent the growing epidemic of
obesity in the United States which is costing billions of
dollars in additional health care expenses. Each year,
increasing numbers of Americans are finding themselves classified
as clinically obese and are suffering from one or more of over
thirty obesity related diseases.
Elite Massage
Chairs .org offers natural solutions for a variety of
obesity related health problems.
The most serious obesity related health complications are
coronary heart disease, diabetes and high blood pressure.
Another, less frequently discussed obesity related health complication is
back pain. Increased occurrence of back pain in obese people is
caused by the added strain on the spine from excess body weight.
The body is designed to function under healthy weight conditions
combined with regular exercise. Obesity, however, creates
stressful conditions that the spine is unable to adapt to.
Added weight causes the spine to increase its natural curve
causing the pelvis to tip forward. This compensation decreases
the structural stability of the spine causing overall back
health to decline.
Some of the more common obesity related spinal problems are
osteoporosis, osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis.
Osteoporosis decreases bone density, increasing the likelihood
of painful and disabling fractures. The risk of osteoporosis is
increased with lack of exercise and a poor diet. Osteoarthritis
and rheumatoid arthritis are caused by unnatural pressure placed
on the joints from excess body weight. Massage chairs are an
excellent means for relieving this pressure and improving
back health.
The most effective way to help relieve obesity related back
problems is to lose weight. Even losing just ten or fifteen
pounds can greatly improve spinal health. Massage therapy is
another useful way to reduce back pain. Massage stimulates blood
circulation, increasing the flow of healing nutrients to the
joints and muscles, as well as helping the body flush pain
causing lactic acids and other toxins from sore muscles.
Electric massage chairs are an affordable way to receive the
pain relieving benefits of massage therapy. Visit the
