Back Pain

Around 80% of people will experience back pain at some stage in their life. For some, chronic back pain can have a detrimental effect on their lifestyle. Back pain can often affect your ability to perform even the most simple daily tasks.

 

Most of the causes of back pain have nothing to do with your back. If someone is treating only your back they are missing the big picture.

There are 5 places that back pain can come from, and only one of them is actually from your back:

  • posterior chain - calf, hamstrings, and buttocks

  • anterior chain - quads, hip flexors, and abdomen

  • sacroiliac joint

  • the back itself

  • the brain

If you or someone you know has back pain that keeps coming back, get them to come to see our expert Osteopaths at ReachHealth so we can really get to the bottom of a true meaningful diagnosis and resolve this problem for you.
