Honestly, I didn’t give electromagnetic fields a second thought until a couple of years ago. Like most people, I assumed EMFs—those invisible forces buzzing around from Wi-Fi routers, laptops, and power lines—were just part of modern life. But after dealing with persistent upper back tension that physical therapy didn’t fix, I began to question whether…
Last year, I went through what I call my “stiff spine saga.” Mornings felt like I had a two-by-four taped to my back. Bending forward? A full-on production. I used to think it was just age creeping in—until a physical therapist casually mentioned, “Your fascia’s probably dried out.” That statement sent me down a rabbit…
If you’ve ever stood on a vibration plate and wondered whether it’s actually doing anything for your spine—you’re not alone.

Back pain has a nasty way of showing up just when life is getting busy—mine crept up during a long writing stint, hunched over a laptop on a not-so-great chair. What started as a dull ache turned into a deep, persistent throb that made even standing uncomfortable. Like many, I tried the usual painkillers, stretching…
