03.01.2022 BACK PAIN!!! . I wanted to highlight this ENTIRE article by: Peter O’Sullivan et al. (2019) Back to Basics: 10 facts every person should know about back pain. .... Perfectly encapsulates in particular: . the relative innocuous nature of low back pain presentations. . the poor correlation between scan results and clinical symptoms. . the safety and efficacy of exercise with low back pain. . that behaviour, rather than tissue damage often maintains pain states. And that pain flare ups are more related to emotion, stress and mood states more than tissue damage. . Posture and a weak core is NOT necessarily predictive of back pain.....YES!!!!! If you have back pain, it DOES NOT mean your core muscles are weak . It DOES NOT MEAN that the answer lies in thousands of isolated pelvic floor exercises. in fact, you may actually be far too intensely braced around your abdominal and paraspinal muscles, and SO hyper vigilant about pain and movement, this may actually be contributing to your symptoms . Loading and bending the spine DOES NOT cause damage, and may help with structural resilience. As I’ve said before, deadlifts will not make your back pain necessarily worse, if you are loading your spine progressively and wisely. . Surgery, strong medications and rest are NOT the answer and rarely fix pain. . effective care includes a combination of education, coaching on exercise and sleep and nutrition habits, progressive loading, and body weight management. . . It’s time to change the way we address back pain. . See more
