Get relief for lower back pain!

The amount of pressure we put on our spine is greatly affected by our position. Have you ever noticed how your lower back stiffens after a long flight or car ride? 🖐️ If I had to choose, I much prefer to stand than to sit, and this chart breaks it down beautifully how the low back is loaded differently in these positions.

What’s the takeaway? Switch up your posture! But let’s focus on that very first bar, which shows the lowest load on your spine. When pain strikes, spend 5-15 minutes lying on your back, like a back reset. I would add a pillow under the knees for extra support of the lower back.
