One of the best things you can do to prevent and/or eliminate back pain is to exercise. Both an inactive lifestyle and being overweight contribute to back pain. Exercise benefits you in so many ways, such as lowering blood pressure, helping you maintain a healthy weight, lowering your risk for diabetes, and the list goes on!
Orthotics can help you maintain a healthy spine through the use of spinal pelvic stabilizers. Devices that you wear in your shoes, stabilizers align all three arches of your foot to provide a balanced foundation for your spine and body.

You could make this recipe two ways. Either follow the recipe below or buy two 46 ounce cans of tomato juice at the store and add remaining ingredients. This is a beverage, not an ingredient for a recipe. It will stand alone. Just serve chilled with a celery stick for a stirrer. Of course, this recipe could be cut in half, but who would want to..
Spring is a great time of year, when the dull brown of winter gives way to fresh grass, soft greens of newly opened leaves, and lots of flower blooms.

Hello! My name is Joshua Bowlin and I am the newest member of the Union County Extension Office. My role is the office administrator. I reside in Washburn where I was born and raised, with my wife Brittany. I grew up on a small hobby farm where I helped my Grandfather take care of many different farm animals. Most of the animals we had might have been my idea. Brittany and I currently have two horses, a dog, and two cats on our farm.
While sports injuries or accidents can cause back pain, sometimes the simplest of movements — for example, picking up a pencil from the floor — can have painful results.

Let me tell you, I was such a little tomboy. While I am an only child, I have to two uncles who are not that much older than me. Growing up, they were more like brothers. My neighbors and cousins were mainly boys. I didn’t play with other girls on a regular basis until I started kindergarten.
