What Are You Doing To Make Your Back Pain WORSE?!Frequently individuals have been dealing with chronic back pain for years. Your pain can be characterized as any of the following, which are the most common complaints we see in our clinic:
Quadratus Lumborum Injuries (quadratus lumborum, or 'QL' is a muscle in the low back attaching to the crest of one of your pelvis bones)
Today's lifestyles create patterns of tight muscles in our bodies. If you don't know what you are doing everyday to cause these tension patterns, it can get tighter and tighter until it begins to hurt. It hurts because the pressure from continuous contraction in the muscle, can eventually squeeze the nerve that runs through it.

Most of our clients experiencing chronic muscle issues are shocked when they get significant relief from just one session with us, because they feel like they tried everything that 'should have' worked. The problem is that, although the traditional specialist are highly skilled in their field, they don't really address your muscular health. In the five years in my twenties when I had excruciating, chronic low back pain, I visited an orthopedist, physical therapist, neurologist had an MRI, and X-Rays, but they found technically no 'reason' for my pain, so they declared it a bulging disc and sent me home with a handful of prescriptions. I was healthy otherwise, and active until my constant back pain became too intense. I did not find relief until my pain had been a part of my EVERY DAY for FIVE years, when I had three massages in two weeks. It was significantly relieved after just one, but by the third massage, the pain was COMPLETELY gone, and has not returned in the eight years since.
