10 reasons WHY your low back hurts

Low back pain is multi-factorial and 80% of people experience it at one point in their life.

Treating low back pain is truly a rewarding journey and requires a holistic approach. I refuse to just throw a band-aid on it.

Here are 10 contributing factors of low back pain:

  • Poor quality sleep

  • lack of hydration & proper nutrients

  • mental health concerns- anxiety, depression

  • stress & lack of healthy outlets

  • lack of movement throughout your day, or being in a repeated forward flexed posture

  • distrust in medical system/previous trauma--> feeling unsafe--> nervous system adaptations & tissue changes

  • apprehensions/avoiding specific movements--> creates fear response-->more nervous system & tissue changes

  • pelvic floor dysfunction (tightness/weakness/coordination with breathing)

  • poor deep core activation & endurance

  • poor hip mobility & pelvic girdle strength (booty)

Give yourself permission to approach your health in a new way. If your provider is only addressing one, or none of the things above, maybe it's time to try someone new, someone looking at the entire YOU.
