There are many causes of back pain. Some back pain is temporary when you did too much at the gym or sit too long. When the pain lasts longer than a day or 2, consider scheduling an appointment at Muscle Activation San Jose. As a joint pain specialist, we see all types of conditions pertaining to the back. Many desperate for an answer to relieve back pain or avoid surgery.
Overworking your back by lifting heavy objects or the complete opposite – not getting enough exercise can cause pain. A fit person should only experience tightness for a few hours to a day, but if you continue to experience muscle tightness or pain then you should consult a specialist.
The most common cause of back pain comes from a compressed spine. Other than a severe trauma to the back, a compressed spine is caused by long term reinforcement of muscular imbalances. As we age, our body is subjected to stress, trauma, and overuse from how we use and hold our body. This causes our body to create shortcuts or compensations. These shortcuts or compensations become stronger over time creating a muscular imbalance. Muscles that typically don’t support your back may take on the weight and become overworked while others become underused.
At MASJ, we offer a hands on treatment to relieve back pain as well as using our Mobile App. In-person appointments will give you a pain management specialist who can thoroughly evaluate your back pain to find the root cause — and fix it. Our facility in San Jose is equipped with all the state-of-the-art machines for strength training, cardio, low impact cardio, and much more. Schedule a free consultation and tour the facility.
As the world changes due to COVID and long work days, we developed a Mobile App aimed to relieve people suffering from pain. The App requires a paid subscription where we evaluate your posture, mobility, and stance. The results give customized exercises based on the evaluation. Re-evaluation is done each month to make sure there is progress. No in-person appointment necessary and get the same level of attention and expertise.
This muscular imbalance will create a compressed spine in the lower back. Traditional methods of treatment only look at the spine itself or the tight muscles causing the compressed spine. No one looks at the weak muscles that are not supporting the spine and agitating the sciatic nerve.
