So Your Lower Back Hurts?

Lower back pain is one of the most common medical complaints with nearly 80% of people dealing with back pain at some point in their life.

Why is lower back pain the most common form of back pain? Lack of movement and use is the number one cause of lower back pain.

When you don’t use your muscles for a year, it causes muscle imbalances and uneven wear and tear on your body, especially on your spine. When many people’s typical day includes more sitting than moving, this is what leads to serious muscle imbalances.

The best way to significantly improve your back pain is to regularly visit your chiropractor. Chiropractors not only relieve your immediate pain, but they help you design a plan to remain pain free. This plan may include stretches and some exercises that are prescribed on an individual basis.
