Senior Health Lecture: Is Your Bad Back Holding You Back?

On Aug. 2 at 12:15 p.m., the South Brunswick Senior Center will present a lecture "Is Your Bad Back Holding You Back?" presented by John Frank from Princeton Healthcare.

Some people are more likely to develop back pain than others. Things that increase your risk for back pain and injury include getting older, having a family history, sitting for long periods, lifting or pulling heavy objects, and having a degenerative disease such as osteoporosis.

This lecture is free and open to South Brunswick residents 55 and older only. For more information please call 732-329-4000, ext. 7670.
