It can come out of nowhere and at any moment: back and neck pain.

“Our spine takes a lot of beating,” says Dr. Amy Babb, Coordinator for the Spine Center. “And our posture, especially nowadays, we are at a computer, we sit a lot, we are sedentary so our posture is not as good as it used to be and that is very important.”

Ninety percent of Americans will experience some sort of back or neck pain at least once in their lives. She says a little physical therapy could be all you need. “If you just have new neck and back pain or if you’ve had neck and back pain off and on for a long tie and no trauma, no falls, no motor vehicle accidents, come in and you can get a good diagnosis,” says Dr. Babb.

She says more doctors are prescribing physical therapy and with it a different approach. “Imagine your doctors talking to each other, about you, and about what your treatment is and what your care will be. It’s a coordinated continuum of care,” says Babb.

One thing to keep in mind about physical therapy is that each person responds to treatment differently. Physical therapists and a trained staff can cater to each individual’s needs on a one-on-one basis.

The Spine Center officially opens to the public on June 1st.
