Introducing the BackMitra – with Alexandra Rodrigues
Your spine is literally the backbone of your ability to move, sleep, and function properly. Almost every movement originates from your spine, so taking care of your spine should be of utmost importance. Without a healthy spine, everyday tasks and movements can become extremely difficult or painful. When the spine is injured you can expect to have limited mobility which affects your quality of life, so it’s important to care about your spinal health and to understand its role in your overall well-being.
