#activity Any chance you have chronic low back pain (CLBP)? More that 72 million people in the U.S. complain of chronic back pain and of those, a “Statista survey found that 29 percent of U.S. adults with back problems believed stress was the cause of their pain, while 26 percent blamed weak muscles or a lack of exercise, and another 26 percent blamed physical work”. Whatever your reason, there’s a very good chance that exercises, done consistently, will have more effect than any pills (which tend to progress to narcotics). Add to the exercises a mindfulness or neuroplasticity retraining component and you might just be able to relax more and enjoy less pain. “When exercise interventions are combined with a psychological component, effects are better and maintain longer over time.” Stay tuned – tomorrow some PT’s weigh in on their “best exercises” for CLBP
