"Anyone who has slipped discs like me knows that the pain can sometime be simply excruciating. Long hours at work at the desk certainly don't help with the pain. Since I started with the Core Fundamentals programme with Aized, my pain has noticeably diminished."

Causes of Back and Neck Pain
Studies show that about 1 in every 5 Singaporeans1 suffer from back pain and neck pain, and you have some 80% chance of suffering from back pain and neck pain sometime during your lifetime.
Common causes of back and neck pain include:
Straining the muscles or ligaments
Pressure on the inter-vertebral discs
Nerve compression or entrapment
Damage to the vertebra (spine).
Back pain and neck pain may either occur suddenly or over time due to repetitive strain. The same survey found that about 1 in 10 Singaporeans suffer attacks of pain once a month or more frequently. In most cases, nothing abnormal shows up in tests such as X-rays and there is no permanent damage.
Pain is a complex symptom that affects us both physically and mentally. Your response is as individual as you are. (See "Pain Layers")
