How Can I Relieve Back Pain While Sitting?

Can You Relieve Back Pain While Sitting?

One of the principal causes of lower back pain is your inability to sit up straight.

The calf, hamstring, and buttock muscles pull the pelvis back, changing the spine’s S’ curve into a ‘C’ curve. This puts intense pressure on the ligaments, tendons, muscles, and discs in the lumbar spine, known as collateral damage.

Here’s how most people sit.

No wonder they get lower back, neck and shoulder pain.

Sit Up Straight

Here’s how you should be sitting.

Sit up straight, the back of the chair pressing into your lower back and abdomen pushing into the desk.

Keep Yourself Strong

Unless the core muscles of your abdomen and lower back are powerful, there’s about an 80% chance you’ll succumb to lower back pain. Any lifting you do will probably be the straw that breaks the camel’s back.

Well, may your physiotherapist say that the cause of back pain is a weak multifidus muscle, but nothing will save the bones in your lower back from getting out of alignment if your general musculature is in poor shape.

The body is an ecosystem. All the muscles have to be strong, not just multifidus.

In the Fix Back Pain ebook, I’ll show you the strength exercises you can do at home.

Keep Yourself Flexible

The chiropractors will try to crunch your bones back into alignment. However, in a couple of weeks (with the slump dog posture and no exercise), tight calf, hamstring, and buttock muscles will have pulled the lower spine vertebrae out of alignment again. Another $66 down the drain!

You’ve got to do the exercises that increase your flexibility.

I will show you these exercises in the Fix Back Pain ebook.

In the meantime, stay tuned, highly tuned, and remember it’s a big ask, expecting the body to get better by having someone do something for you; sooner or later, you must do something for yourself.

Regards and best wishes
