Low Back Pain

Back pain is a medical issue which has been a major cause to lack of physical activity and missed work, that is damaging in supporting quality of life. The lumbar spine or lower back, is an extraordinarily well-organized structure, located behind the abdomen from the rib cage to the pelvis, which interconnects ligaments, muscles, nerves and bones. The structure provides sustenance, strength, and elasticity. However, this complex structure also leaves the low back vulnerable to wound and aching.
