Tight thigh muscles can cause back pain
The thigh muscles originate on the front of your pelvis and insert just below your knee joint. As these muscles get tight they shorten, causing both knee pain and pulling down on the pelvis. As the pelvis is rotated it causes your lumbar spine to pull forward and down. This will cause an aching pain in your low back.
To rotate your pelvis back where it belongs you need to release the tension in your thighs. You can do this by pressing deeply into the thigh muscles with your elbow, and then deeply sliding down from the very top of your thigh (where it meets with your trunk) all the way to just above your knee. You'll find a bump just about 1/2 of the way down your thigh. This is the spasm that is causing your low back pain, and knee pain.
Press deeply on that bump for about 60 seconds, and then continue sliding down your leg. If you do that 3-4 times the spasm will release, and you'll be pleased to feel your low back pain easing.
For more information on your low back, go to www.julstro.com. There are great posts in the "Archives" forum.
Wishing you well,
Julie

Back pain is a serious business, since it disrupts how you handle weights. With back pain, your productivity will fall if not taken care of. That is why, the first time I had an extreme pain in my back due to a fall, I was wheeled to a doctor and then, a chiropractor (Brooklyn Center, MN based clinic) helped me recover.
After numerous therapy and rehabilitation sessions, I returned on playing tennis with my friends, but I always go to the chiropractic (Brooklyn Center MN) clinic twice a month for my regular therapy.
Thanks a bunch for sharing this with all people you actually recognize what you are talking about!
Bookmarked. Kindly also discuss with my website.
