“I was referred to Uprite Medical due to a spinal injury and a long list of unexplainable medical conditions. For almost 3 years, I had been suffering from nerve damage, lost of most left arm function, extreme temperature changes, and spontaneous muscle spasms, to name a few. After consulting with surgeons and specialists in multiple states.

Dr Tawfik reviewed my case and, through thorough testing and scans, presented an option for recovery. Unexpectedly, I noticed an immediate difference the moment I woke up following the surgery. Months later, I can still say I am truly grateful to him and his team.

Dr. Tawfik literally saved my husband's life. My husband fell down a set of stairs and broke multiple vertebrae. We weren't sure if he would wake up from being unconscious or if he did wake up would he be paralyzed. Dr. Tawfik walked us through his surgical plan for my husband, his recuperation period and his planned recovery.

Everything went perfect and my husband was able to return to work after 6 months of healing. Dr. Tawfik and his staff were a pleasure to work with. I Highly recommend them

3 Essential Tips to Prevent Your Back Pain

Maintaining a healthy spine is essential for overall well-being and can prevent the discomfort and limitations associated with back pain. Here are three key areas to focus on:

Stay Active

Staying Active

Engaging in regular physical activity is vital for spinal health. Strengthening the muscles that support your back and increasing flexibility can reduce the risk of injury. Here’s how you can stay active in Middletown:

  • Local Fitness Centers: Check out facilities like Apollon Gym in Edison, offering a variety of equipment and fitness classes designed to suit all ages and fitness levels.

  • Outdoor Activities:  Take advantage of parks and recreational areas in Edison for walking, jogging, or cycling. Fresh air and natural settings can also boost your mood while you exercise.

Mindful Posture

ergonomic chairs

Your daily posture significantly impacts your spinal health. Here’s how to ensure you’re keeping your spine happy:

  • Ergonomic Workspaces: Consider visiting local office supply stores in Edison to find ergonomic chairs and desks that encourage proper posture.

  • Regular Movement:  Make it a point to adjust your sitting position frequently and take short walks or stretch every hour to reduce strain on your spine.

Adequate Sleep and Balanced Nutrition

balanced diet

The health of your spine is influenced by your sleep patterns and diet.

  • Mattress Shopping: Visit bedding stores in Edison to find a supportive mattress that suits your sleeping style and supports your spine effectively.

  • Healthy Eating: Embrace a diet rich in calcium and vitamin D for bone health, and stay hydrated to maintain the elasticity of spinal discs.
By integrating these tips into your lifestyle, you can significantly reduce the risk of back pain and maintain a healthy, active spine.
