With a number of awareness weeks in September raising awareness of different types of pain and conditions, another painful condition ‘Back Pain’, is also having an awarenss week in October.
Back Care Awareness week is 6th – 12th October, and this year the theme is ‘Back in the Office’, focusing on the back and shoulder problems office workers encounter which can seriously affect their quality of life and their ability to carry out their day to day duties.
Back Care aims to significantly reduce the burden of back pain by providing information and education to all people and organisations affected by back pain and to fund scientific research into the causes, prevention and management of back pain.

When I had probs with my back, way long ago, I bought one of those kneeler chairs where your weight is on your knees and you have to keep your back straight. Best decision I ever took – but I couldn’t do it now, poor old knees!
