There are many causes for back pain, some known to you and some you might never have thought about. Therefor it might be of great benefit to you to read this article.
Often we think that, as soon as we feel anything wrong in our back, we must have “done something to it” just beforehand. But that is not the case. Most of us know the feeling of sudden, unexplainable back pain, where you wonder where it comes from. Fact is that you might have had an accident, a fall, a trauma to your back a few days, weeks months or even years ago and your body is doing a great job in trying to avoid you from feeling the pain. But if the body doesn’t heal and the compensation work is getting too hard, that’s when you start feeling pain from an incident you might not even remember anymore. so there really is no such thing as back pain without any reason. There is always a reason and it is just a matter of remembering what you might have done that could have caused that pain in the first place. This also is a very important information for your practitioner as he can get a better understanding of what might have happened in your structural body depending on the type of trauma you have experienced.
Another reason for back pain, particularly lower back pain, could be a different in leg length. if you walk on different long legs, your structure in your lower back changes, the longer leg constantly pushes against the hip joint which ultimatley gives in and starts moving. That movement can impact on your sacrum and ileum as well as your spine and create a range of different problems - as far up as in the neck. So it really is important to have your legs balanced on a regular basis and believe me it is very simple and your Dorn practitioner can show you exactly what you can do to keep the legs balanced, so you don’t have to come back for treatments again and again.
And guess what else can contribute to your lower back pain: Not enough fluid intake. Yes you have heard it again and again. “Make sure you have enough water”. Water, not coffe, tea, beer or wine. they might be liquid as well but unfortunately they don’t count as fluid intake for your body. Coffee and tea even inhibit the fluid intake and dehydrate you. That by the way is the reason why in mediterranean countries you tend to get a glass of water with your coffee. To stabilise the fluids. Now the problem is that if we don’t take in enough fluids our body extracts fluids out of our tissues, muscles and even out of the brain, and that lack of fluid in our body can have a lot of different consequences, one being back pain and headaches. So when you experience these pains and others try to increase your water intake and see if your condition changes. But make sure you give it at least a week before you can notice any changes and don’t expect miracles over night.
Of course there are so many more causes for back pain but the three I mentioned above are easy to work out and often easy to eliminate without having to go through lengthy treatments or even surgery.
