There are few tougher jobs. Being a waiter (or waitress) Is incredibly hard on the human back. So many young adults (especially women) traumatize themselves tremendously by the awkward lifting required in this profession. And you know what? The bad effects of injuring the spine and muscles can last a lifetime if not treated properly. A significant back strain/sprain cannot be treated adequately with medication! You may be able to "hide" symptoms for awhile but the symptoms will most likely come back, over and over again. This is exactly how chronic back conditions begin. Something as simple as a "strain/sprain" can (over the years) gravitate into disc problems, arthritis, herniated discs etc.. The good news is that gentle, safe Chiropractic manipulation can correct damage to the back joints and muscles and allow proper healing to occur. Also, regular Chiropractic manipulation can offset the effects of the strenuous lifting and movements precipitated by serving. Call for a No Charge Consultation/Examination (including treatment and x-rays). You probably don't have to live with pain. Dr.White
