With a digital spine analysis (DSA), a muscular evaluation of the spine, India’s Qi Spine Clinic generated a spine function graph that led to customised treatment and non-surgical therapy for many spine specialists, Qi claimed. Also Read - 7 reasons why the #BeefBan is good



‘It is really simple. The diabetes doctor wants to know your blood sugar levels. The cardiologist wants to know your blood pressure (BP) and your angiogram,’ said Nithij Arenja, promoter, Qi Spine Clinic. Also Read - How to diagnose the cause of back pain

‘What can be measured, can be managed. We generate a Spine Function Graph which provides a vital link to the treatment of your spine function,’ Nithij added.

The spine is the least measured and most miraculous engineering marvel in our body, Nithij noted.

‘From bankers to housewives, young college students to sportsmen, Qi has seen every conceivable patient category,’ said Garima Anandani, head of spine consultants at Qi.

‘The problems are all different, and hence the therapy is different for each person too,’ Anandani added.

Traditional scanning methods such as magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and X-rays fail to identify a clear cause for back pain in 85 per cent of the cases, a statement from the clinic added.

What can cause a back pain?

Several physical activities that you perform on a daily basis can lead to excessive strain on your back due to stress. The pain that results from these activities usually subsides within a few days, with proper rest and avoiding activities that can strain your back. Common activities that can lead to a back pain are: 

  • Carrying heavy loads with one hand and lifting, pulling or dragging bulky loads incorrectly
  • Driving on uneven or bad roads (without properly adjusting your seat) or driving for long periods (long distance traveling)
  • Twisting and stretching improperly, like in the case of practicing yoga without using the proper technique
  • Sitting at one place and in one position for long hours
  • Sitting in a poor posture (bending, stooping or crouching) while watching TV or working 

Apart from these, other conditions such as pregnancy, slipped disc, sciatica, etc can also cause backache. Read more such causes of back pain.
