Lower back problems is one of the most common reasons people seek treatment. It can feel like a dull ache, sharp jolt, or deep pressure—and often limits movement, standing, or even restful sleep. Most cases are linked to poor posture, weak core muscles, or spinal misalignment.

Lower back pain is one of the most frustrating and common forms of pain, and one of the most common reasons people seek treatment. Lower back pain can express itself as a dull, lingering ache through to a sharp bolt of pain as the body moves or even a deep, heavy pressure limiting the ability to bend, lift, stand, and may even affect your ability to sleep comfortably. The symptoms may look different from person to person, but most cases can be attributed to poor posture, core and gluteal muscles, or a spinal misalignment that puts excess load on the lower vertebrae and soft tissue support. Consistent sitting, poor lifting habits, or day to day stress can progressively change the natural curve of your lumbar spine, contributing to compression, stiffness and inflammation. Over time, the body will compensate for loss of range and patterns of movement will be poor, further weakening your lower back and hips. Without the appropriate intervention, lower back problems can refer to the hips and thighs, or be problematic enough to create symptoms similar to sciatica.
