What causes it? What can you do to fix it? <b>We’re going to answer both questions for you today and offer some tips on how to alleviate low back pain if you or someone you know suffers from it.</b></span><br /> <span style="font-family: &quot;arial&quot; , &quot;helvetica&quot; , sans-serif;"><br /></span> <span style="font-family: &quot;arial&quot; , &quot;helvetica&quot; , sans-serif;">The main cause of back pain is too much sitting. You have to sit in the car to get to work, sit at your desk while you’re at work, then come home to sit on the couch when you’re done with work. A sedentary lifestyle like this can cause low back pain because it compresses your spine. In addition to pain, it can cause numbness and tingling. Here are a few different ways to help alleviate that pain:</span><br /> <span style="font-family: &quot;arial&quot; , &quot;helvetica&quot; , sans-serif;"><br /></span> <span style="font-family: &quot;arial&quot; , &quot;helvetica&quot; , sans-serif;"><b>1. Wobble disc.</b> You’ve probably heard or seen someone using a big exercise ball as a chair in order to alleviate back pain. It works, but it’s not very practical and it still leaves you susceptible to bad posture. With a wobble disc like <span style="color: blue;"><a href="https://www.amazon.com/Stability-Cushion-Diameter-Balance-Included/dp/B00M4ZNVMS/ref=pd_lpo_vtph_200_lp_tr_t_2?_encoding=UTF8&amp;psc=1&amp;refRID=KX60ZMRFHREPCJ0NFDAW" target="_blank">this one you can get on Amazon</a></span>, you can get all of the benefits of an exercise ball (core stability, healthy spine position) with little of the inconvenience. It’s a comfy cushion that fits on your chair and forces you to stay put in a healthy spinal position while preventing slouching.</span><br /> <div class="quote-box"> <span class="quote quote-left">“</span><br /> <div class="quote-text"> A wobble disc is handy, useful, and discreet. </div> <br /> <span class="quote quote-right">”</span></div> <span style="font-family: &quot;arial&quot; , &quot;helvetica&quot; , sans-serif;"><b>2. Runner’s lunge.</b> This is a great stretch for your hip flexor, which is one of the main culprits of low back pain. Check the video above for the proper form. Doing 15 of these anytime you feel that pain coming on will help to calm your muscles.</span><br /> <span style="font-family: &quot;arial&quot; , &quot;helvetica&quot; , sans-serif;"><br /></span> <span style="font-family: &quot;arial&quot; , &quot;helvetica&quot; , sans-serif;">Our goal with this blog is to continue to provide tremendous value to you by bringing you news and tips like this.
