Do you suffer from lower back pain that disrupts your day? Find out how exercise can be the key to lasting relief and a healthier life.

At Longevity Exercise Physiology, we know that lower back pain can significantly impact your quality of life and even hinder longevity. Addressing the issue with targeted exercise is vital for improving your daily function and ensuring long-term health.

Understanding Lower Back Pain
What is Lower Back Pain?
Lower back pain refers to discomfort or pain experienced in the lower region of the spine. It can range from a dull ache to sharp, debilitating pain, making even the simplest tasks difficult. This condition is one of the most common health complaints worldwide.

Common Causes of Lower Back Pain:

• Muscle Strain: Overuse or improper lifting can cause strain to the muscles supporting your spine.
• Poor Posture: Sitting or standing with improper posture, especially for prolonged periods (desk workers) can lead to pain by putting undue pressure on your back.
• Herniated Discs or Degenerative Disc Disease: Medical conditions like these can increase pain and limit mobility, especially as we age..

Lower back pain affects people of all ages, but studies suggest that 50-80% of adults will experience lower back pain at some point in their lives. If this sounds like something you’ve been struggling with, keep reading to discover how exercise can lead to a healthier, pain-free life!

Benefits of Exercise for Lower Back Pain

Exercise plays a crucial role in reducing lower back pain and improving your overall health. Here’s how:

• Reduces Pain: Strengthening the muscles around your spine can alleviate discomfort by providing better support and alignment for the lower back.
• Improves Mobility: Stretching exercises help relieve stiffness, increasing your range of motion.
• Boosts Posture: By building strength in the back and core, exercise enhances posture and reduces strain on the lower back region.
• Prevents Future Pain: Exercise holds the ability to reduce pain levels through different physiological mechanisms, and regular physical activity can help prevent recurrence of lower back pain by strengthening the muscles that support your spine.

At Longevity, our Exercise for Lower Back Pain programs offer a personalised approach to help you achieve these benefits and enjoy long-term pain relief.
