Back pain, whether in the neck or lower back, has become ubiquitous. The National Institute of Health estimate that 80 percent of all Americans have suffered from back pain at some point in their lives, and the number of adults whose life is markedly affected continues to grow.
Many will be familiar with the feelings of a stiff, sore back after a wrong twist, a bad bend or an intensive workout. These pains are usually musculoskeletal in origin and will heal over time with rest, ice/heat and over-the-counter medications.

The Ohio Northern University HealthWise program recently received a $8,500 grant from the Buckeye Health Plan that will expand the program’s services, specifically targeting the area’s pediatric population.
This grant will assist ONU HealthWise in its efforts to expand its offerings from the traditional adult audience to the pediatric population, largely through health screenings and educational programs.
This project provides a focus on health from two different directions. The first is prevention, which will be executed by educating school children about healthy lifestyles, healthy choices and a life predicated on wellness.
Ada's newest art piece is The Tower of Inspiration. It is located on the main floor of the new ONU engineering building. The artist is James Lehr Kennedy, entrepreneur, inventor and artist. He is the great-grandson of Henry Solomon Lehr, founder of ONU. He is also a major donor to the building, named the James Lehr Kennedy Engineering Building. The sculpture changes colors as evident in the next photos in this series.
