In many senses, <strong>our biped spine is a legacy from our earliest ancestors<\/strong> who, of course, moved around on all fours. Their ancient quadruped spine was developed to act like an efficient suspension bridge with their vital organs slung below, surrounded by a bony rib cage for protection. But how that simple arrangement has been changed and modified over the years:<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>&#8220;The human spine has been transformed into a weight bearing column, putting it under unprecedented stresses \u2026&#8221;<sup><a href=\"#\" class=\"lnb-footnote-anchor\" data-group=\"lnb-footnote-1\">1)<\/a><\/sup><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>So one direct cost of bipedal locomotion \u2014 our unique ability to walk and run \u2014\u00a0 has been an <strong>increased susceptibility to all kinds of painful spine-related back injuries and problems<\/strong>. For many people, such issues seem to multiply with advancing years, with medical professionals often attributing the cause to spondylosis \u2014 commonly defined in medical circles as the &#8216;age-related wear and tear of the spinal column.'<sup><a href=\"#\" class=\"lnb-footnote-anchor\" data-group=\"lnb-footnote-2\">2)<\/a><\/sup><\/p>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\n<style>\n#col-1713931744 > .col-inner {\n  margin: 0px 0px -30px 0px;\n}\n<\/style>\n\t<\/div>\n\n\t\n\n\t<div id=\"col-498284544\" class=\"col col-md-order-1 medium-9 small-12 large-9\"  >\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"col-inner\"  >\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\n<div class=\"row\"  id=\"row-20354506\">\n\n\n\t<div id=\"col-238045856\" class=\"col small-12 large-12\"  >\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"col-inner\"  >\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\n\n<div class=\"row\"  id=\"row-1558643558\">\n\n\n\t<div id=\"col-1894120381\" class=\"col medium-3 small-12 large-2\"  >\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"col-inner text-center\"  >\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\n\n\t<div class=\"img has-hover x md-x lg-x y md-y lg-y\" id=\"image_1422487351\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"img-inner dark\" >\n\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"289\" height=\"289\" src=\"https:\/\/www.liebscher-bracht.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/roland-liebscher-bracht-rund.png\" class=\"attachment-large size-large\" alt=\"Roland Liebscher-Bracht\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.liebscher-bracht.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/roland-liebscher-bracht-rund.png 289w, https:\/\/www.liebscher-bracht.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/roland-liebscher-bracht-rund-150x150.png 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 289px) 100vw, 289px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n<style>\n#image_1422487351 {\n  width: 32%;\n}\n@media (min-width:550px) {\n  #image_1422487351 {\n    width: 100%;\n  }\n}\n<\/style>\n\t<\/div>\n\t\n\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\n<style>\n#col-1894120381 > .col-inner {\n  padding: 10px 0px 0px 20px;\n  margin: 0px 0px -30px 0px;\n}\n<\/style>\n\t<\/div>\n\n\t\n\n\t<div id=\"col-830176573\" class=\"col hide-for-small medium-9 small-12 large-10\"  >\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"col-inner\"  >\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\n\n<h3><span style=\"color: #b5a074;\">Roland Liebscher-Bracht<\/span><\/h3>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom: 0.6em;\">Germany's most trusted pain specialist and author of several bestselling self-help books on the treatment of pain conditions.<\/p>\n<div class=\"accordion\">\n\n\t<div id=\"accordion-2948317979\" class=\"accordion-item\">\n\t\t<a id=\"accordion-2948317979-label\" class=\"accordion-title plain\" href=\"#accordion-item-read-more\" aria-expanded=\"false\" aria-controls=\"accordion-2948317979-content\" >\n\t\t\t<button class=\"toggle\" aria-label=\"Toggle\"><i class=\"icon-angle-down\"><\/i><\/button>\n\t\t\t<span>Read more<\/span>\n\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t<div id=\"accordion-2948317979-content\" class=\"accordion-inner\" aria-labelledby=\"accordion-2948317979-label\" >\n\t\t\t\n\n<p>Roland Liebscher-Bracht is Germany's most trusted pain specialist and author of several bestselling books on pain treatment.

Together with his wife, the physician Dr. Petra Bracht, he has developed a revolutionary new form of pain treatment: With the so-called \"Osteopressur\", in which certain points on your body are pressed, and special stretching exercises, pain can be stopped completely without medication or surgical intervention. It is particularly important that this pain treatment gives you the opportunity to help yourself against your pain in a self-determined way.
