Senior Citizen Pain, Posture & Exercise

Lots of times doctors tell us we have pain “because, after all, you are 60 years old.”  Or 50, 49, 72, or 84 years old.

They often neglect (just because they don’t know) the roles of your muscles and posture as causes of pain.

What are some of the benefits of senior citizens exercising and doing movements to get a straighter, stronger back?

• You will have less back pain.
• It will be easier to breathe.
• There will be less pressure on your internal organs so they can function better (heart, etc.)
• You will feel better about yourself because you will be straighter and taller.
• You will have less pain in your back, neck, arms and hands.
• You’ll have less constipation. (Increased movement helps your bowels move.  Straighter posture takes compression off your intestines so they have more space to move.)
• Your blood and lymph circulation will improve.
• Your strength will improve.
• And, your balance will be better and that’s really important!

If you go to SimpleStrengthening.com you will find lots of articles  which explain both why people have pain and how simple strengthening movements, that you can even do in bed, are done.

You can see there are many benefits for you, as a senior citizen, to exercise, move and get a straighter, stronger back.  And that’s a good thing
