The HIDDEN Back Pain Causes

If you are reading this article, then probably you belong to the group of nearly 80% of people who are suffering from back pain, which is the second most common reason for medical visits in the world. However, you, as the majority of those people, may NOT be aware of the true back pain causes.

It is common knowledge that poor posture usually leads to back pain, and those days you missed work because of your back pain, may be caused by some lifting, bending and twisting…

Those causes of back pain can be categorized in few groups:

• Genetic disorders (like scoliosis) or acquired disorders (like arthritis)
• Mechanical causes (fractures, spinal degeneration, sciatica, herniated discs…)
• Injuries (while lifting, bending and twisting)
• Rare causes like infection or tumors.

However, those causes are only the visible part of your problem, but the fact is, you need to deal with the underlying HIDDEN causes that make your back problems appear in the first place.

All of the back pain is eventually caused by 1 (or more) of the following three issues:

•    Too much of something
  (too much running, cycling, weightlifting, sitting at  the  computer…)

•    Too little of something 
  
  (drinking too little water,
  eating  too  little  fruits  and vegetables, too  little  exercising…)

•    Stagnation or slowdown of blood flow and body energy (too much or too little of something in your life—or by both)

For example: Too much anxiety, tension, and fear restrict blood vessels.

Also too much sitting for long periods of time (at computer, conferences, airplane traveling) restricts the blood  flow  in  your  legs (resulting in a clot)

And too  much  “ bad fat”, too much strain, too little activity, too  little  stress  relief,  too  little  water,  and  too  little stretching, all can  lead  to  low  energy and poor circulation. 

And poor circulation can lead to muscle soreness, toxin buildup, and back pain.

You can see the pattern here of how these 3 points can interact with each other. You  can  see  how  too  much  of  one  thing  often  trigger  too little  of  something  else - creating one complete  chain  of  too  much and  too  little  resulting  in  energy  and  blood  flow  that  is  too slow, which result in, you guess ... BACK PAIN.

So now, you can be clear why most common approaches for back pain relief DON’T work. They focus strictly on pain without addressing the underlying conditions and there is no long-term improvement.

Start by balancing those areas in your life starting from today, and you will see how your pain in the back will start to fade away over time…
