World Spine Day 2024: a Healthy Spine with CURAVITA

Each year on October 16th, we celebrate World Spine Day, a global event raising awareness about spinal health. The spine is vital to our overall well-being, but many people suffer from spinal disorders that impact their quality of life. At CURAVITA, we’re dedicated to helping the Ottawa community achieve better spine health through personalized chiropractic, physiotherapy, and massage therapy. Let’s explore key facts about spine health and how CURAVITA is committed to building a healthier community.

Spine Health: Key Facts

Spinal disorders are a global issue affecting millions of people. According to the World Spine Care organization, back pain is the single leading cause of disability worldwide. Spinal pain is responsible for 60-70% of all missed workdays, making it a significant public health concern. Whether it’s caused by poor posture, lack of exercise, or injury, back pain can significantly impact an individual’s quality of life.

In total, more than 80% of people will experience back pain at some point in their lives. Additionally, this risk increases with age. As life expectancy rises, the burden of spinal disorders is expected to grow. This adds a significant strain on our healthcare system. With so many people affected, it’s important to raise awareness about prevention and treatment options to help people lead healthier, more active lives.
