Back pain: Back pain is the result of gravity, and poor posture due to the lifestyle we all live, hunched over technology. Simple fix hang upside down like a bat! well that's not practical but yoga will help elongate and strengthen your back while reversing the signs of gravity. Make sure to have a good diet and decrease any stress you may have. This will help!

LOW BACK PAIN: Begin with a gentle range of motion and stretching exercises. Incorporate a neutral spine core stability program with mcgill exercises such as planks(front and side), "birddog", and pull ins. May progress to a global dynamic strengthening program as able. This should build a strong foundation for your back and eliminate your pain and potential for future pain.
