Back Pain

Do You Have Back Pain?

Do you have pain in your upper back (thoracic spine) or lower back (lumbar spine)? Pain levels and symptoms vary greatly in these areas. Stiffness, ache, spams, tenderness are all indications of problems. Symptoms that indicate a serious cause for back pain include severe back pain that shoots down the leg, leg numbness, leg weakness, groin numbness, and difficulty urinating.

Causes of Back Pain

From a slight ache to debilitating pain, dealing with back pain can be frustrating. There are many factors that can contribute to back pain. Tension in the hips, quads, abdomen, and chest can cause issues in the back. Weakness in muscles due to prolonged sitting can also lead to muscular imbalances contributing to back pain. In more severe cases pain can be associated with disk bulging, rupture, or degeneration.

How Can Massage Help?

Tension accumulates over time due to excessive activity, inactivity, or trauma. Consistent care for the body restores suppleness of your muscles back to their original condition. An ongoing health care plan keeps bodily stress away allowing you to fully participate in life without pain.
