What: Back pain - the curse of the nation it would seem and according to research set to be released to coincide with this year's Chiropractic Awareness Week, something that we really sit up and pay more attention to.

The British Chiropractic Association (BCA) undertook extensive research amongst the public across the UK at the beginning of the year to investigate the state of the nation's posture and back pain. As a result, the BCA are urging the nation to take proactive steps to improve its posture and will be joining us in a web TV show to highlight exactly where we're going wrong and how to overcome our slouch potato lifestyle.

Poor posture can have health implications yet, by making just a few lifestyle changes, people can help to improve their posture, take care of their spine and help themselves look and feel their best. The even better part is that all this requires a minimum effort - just three minutes a day can make the world of difference.

So if you're a parent who's suffered the odd twinge when lifting your young ones; an office worker who, no matter how many times you adjust the height of your chair at work, can't seem to get it right; or if you're just generally fed up of back aches and pains - join our Web TV show as Tim Hutchful and Rishi Loatey of the BCA will be on hand to deliver their expert advice.
