As
our economy grows, more and more people are entering the traditional
desk job to make a living in the service sector. However, there are
several side effects associated with the sedentary jobs in the
service sector that are slowly coming to the fore. Some of the most
common complaints of people sitting for long hours in front of
computers are headaches, pain in the neck, hips and legs. The
underlying factors of most of these problems are due to the pressure
on the spinal cord. This happens when a person sits in front of the
computer for a long period of time.
To
relieve the pain and reduce the pressure on the spinal cord, doctors
use special exercises. However, even the most experienced doctor or
physiotherapist sometime gets puzzled as for when to put the patient
prone or supine and at what point in time they should start the
lateral flexion and when to progress to a different position. To help
you with these decisions, there
are very advanced equipment in the market like the Kennedy
decompression system. In this kind of system, you get assistance from
an equipment like the Kennedy
decompression table to help the patient in relieving his pain.
These state-of-the-art
tables are programmed with the most effective training schedules and
are a worthy assistant that should be the part of any modern
rehabilitation center.
