Did you know that the World Health Organization estimates that approximately 149 million workdays are lost due to back pain? Low back pain is a sensation that is all too common for millions of people. Sixty to seventy percent of people across industrialized nations experience back pain, which can greatly hinder daily life and limit your participation in daily tasks and activities that you enjoy. The American Physical Therapy Association states that back pain is the most commonly experienced form of pain for Americans. In fact, one in every four Americans has experienced some form of back pain in the past three months. Back pain commonly results from a muscle strain or injury. However, it can also develop as a result of an underlying condition, such as nerve irritation, a disc injury, or change in bone structure. If left untreated, back pain can also progress into more serious health issues.
