Along with focused treatment, here are 5 easy tips to ease your low back pain during the hustle and bustle:
Back, Neck and Shoulder pain is increasingly common in our busy modern world due to all of the forward bending, computer work, and driving we do. Our daily activities usually involve leaning our spine forward, rounding the shoulders and hiking them to the earlobes.
Whether you have a respiratory condition such as asthma, feel heavy in the muscles around the chest, or simply feel that you aren’t reaching your full breathing potential, supporting how you breathe through movement and exercise can help you thrive in both body and mind.

Headaches
Chronic back and neck pain
Muscle pain and spasms
Heavy limbs and lethargy
Sciatica
The fascia is the one “organ” that affects every single part of our body. It’s our architecture. It’s what’s below our skin, supplying the framework for our muscles, tendons and ligaments, connecting and protecting the arrangement of our internal organs, supporting our skeleton, essentially providing the fiber and glue for our entire being.
