Upper Back Pain

The Silent Strain Behind Your Discomfort

Upper back pain often manifests as stiffness, tightness, or a burning sensation between the shoulder blades. This discomfort is usually caused by poor posture, muscle imbalances, or prolonged sitting—common in today’s sedentary lifestyles—and frequently goes unnoticed until it begins to affect breathing, neck mobility, or shoulder movement

Causes

Forward Head & Rounded Shoulder Posture

A misalignment where the head leans forward and shoulders round, causing strain on the neck and upper back muscles.

Muscle Strain and Tension from Overuse or Injury

Overworked or injured muscles in the upper back become tight and painful due to repetitive stress or trauma.

Spinal Misalignment and Thoracic Spine Dysfunction

Improper alignment of thoracic vertebrae leading to restricted movement and discomfort in the upper back.

Poor Breathing Mechanics and Restricted Rib Movement

Inefficient breathing patterns that limit rib cage expansion, contributing to upper back stiffness and tension.

Sedentary Lifestyle and Prolonged Sitting

Extended periods of inactivity and sitting compress the spine and weaken supportive muscles, causing pain and stiffness.

Referred Pain from Neck or Shoulder Conditions

Pain felt in the upper back that originates from problems in the neck or shoulder areas, due to nerve or muscular connections.

Symptoms to Look For

Dull, aching, or sharp pain between shoulder blades

Stiffness or limited movement when turning the upper body

Discomfort during deep breathing or stretching

Muscle tightness, spasms, or trigger points

Tingling or pressure radiating into the arms or chest
