Lower back pain is one of the most common reasons why people consult with a chiropractor. Low back pain, usually brought on by a stress or strain to the joints in the lumbar or pelvis region, is caused by sudden movements or poor body mechanics while lifting heavy objects.

Long stretches of time spent sitting needs to be balanced with periodic movement. Strengthening our muscles through exercise, stretching, and regular use will enhance our bodies, our longevity, and our mental health. Get up from your seat and avoid these common causes of lumbar pain:
Bending, lifting, or twisting incorrectly (combination of carrying weight while making a movement)
Fatigued or tired muscles from lack of strength, mobility, or use
Putting stress on wrong part of body
As we age, we are more prone to ailment, especially if we allow ourselves to become less active or even sedentary. When our muscles aren’t being used, the neurological connections from our brains to our muscles wear down. So when the muscle is suddenly in use again, the brain doesn’t recognize the movement and misfires, resulting in pain.
Pinched nerve
Herniated disc
Arthritis in low back or neck
Fatigued or tired muscles from lack of strength, mobility, or use
