(PRWEB) June 2, 2005 -- 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 Americans are finding themselves classified as
clinically obese and are suffering from one or more of over thirty obesity
related diseases. Premier Massage Chairs .org www.premiermassagechairs.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 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 too. 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 www.premiermassagechairs.org/education.html.
The most
effective way to help relieve obesity related back problems is to lose weight.
Even loosing 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.

to receive the pain relieving benefits of massage therapy. Visit the Premier
