Renowned doctors and chiropractors agree: THIS is the ONLY way to get rid of back pain 

Dr. Michael M. Gayle explains why fascia is the most common cause of back pain and what the best solution is for a pain-free life.

You are not alone - 81% of Americans suffer from back pain

Do you suffer from back pain? Back pain is incredibly common.

It's estimated that at least 81% of the population will experience it at some point in their lives, and 4 of 5 people will have it within any two year period.

In this blog post I'll provide you with a solution that will help you get your back pain under control - guaranteed!

It doesn't matter if you're 30, 40 or even 50—back pain is no joke.

It can sideline you from enjoying your life and keep you from doing the things you love.

Americans alone spend an estimated $50 billion a year on back pain.

Why chiropractors, physiotherapists & doctors are not a long-term solution.

Sessions with chiropractors, physiotherapists and doctors are expensive and usually relieve the pain only for the next 3-4 days.

An average visit to the office costs about 115 USD in America.

If we extrapolate that and assume you have to get treatment once a month, we come up with a cost of over a thousand dollars a year.

Besides, this is not a long term solution, because if you don't go to the doctor's office regularly, the pain will come back.

The only solution to get rid of your back pain in the long run is to do it yourself.

Dr. Michael M. Gayle: “The main reason for back pain are shortened leg extensors”

The most common reason for lower back and hip pain is shortened leg extensors (constantly bent legs).

Due to this shortening, the lower back has to compensate to bring the body back into an upright position - this leads to pain.

This overloads the lower back and causes adhesions in the fascia.

Frequent sitter in typical posture: In this position, the hip flexors are "shortened", i.e. they do not experience any extension - shown here using the example of the lumbar muscle (M. psoas).

At some point, the tissue adapts to the permanent shortening. Muscles and fascia then become unyielding. This unyielding tissue develops a forward tensile stress that the back and especially the gluteal muscles must counteract.

The counterforces are particularly strong when standing: the hip flexors (e.g. psoas and iliac muscles) pull on the spine and pelvis. Counter-players such as the gluteal muscles act against this.

The opposing forces (tension through shortening, counter-tension through stretching) exert enormous pressure on the vertebrae and intervertebral discs. The body warns of the impending damage with pain.

How to get rid of it

Here you need to stretch especially the front thigh, groin and hip.

Stretching is the most effective and quickest way to relieve tension and pain throughout the body.

This stretching technique is very often used in physiotherapy to stretch muscles and ligaments in a natural way.

With targeted fascia therapy and supportive training, the fascia can be loosened again and the complaints resolved.

… Wait, what’s a fascia?

Like the white pith of a grapefruit, your fascia coats and holds each component of your body together.

Your fascial system runs throughout your body.

The term refers to the interconnected sheets of tissue that join, stabilize, and protect your muscles and organs.

These sheets of tissue are called fascia.

Basically, it’s the stuff that holds everything together in your body (so it’s pretty important). 

When your fascia is healthy, you enjoy greater strength, flexibility, and balance.

If you sit a lot, then the fasciae are not sufficiently stretched and pain develops.

Dr. Michael M. Gayle: “Back pain leads to depression!”

Since just about everything in our body is connected, shortened muscles not only cause back pain but also plantar fasciitis, tight hamstrings, sciatica, foot injuries and tight calves. 

What a lot of people forget is that at the end of the day, these ailments have a huge impact on our mental health. 

Permanent back pain can also lead to depression. Back pain and depression are often mutually dependent, as people with a depressive mood are usually more sensitive to pain. 

Studies show that a large proportion of people with chronic back pain also suffer from depression or at least a depressive mood.

The only long-term solution is to stretch the fascia.

The Fascia Stretcher is the solution!

Research shows that doing a combination of different stretching variants two to three times a week can help prevent and ease lower back pain.

So, together with other experts we have found lower back stretches you can do at home to help ease your lower back pain.

The Orthovital Fascia Stretcher is an extremely effective tool for pain relief and relaxation.

Regular stretching and loosening of the fascia can improve circulation, which in turn relieves pain and reduces tension.

It is a simple and natural way to relieve pain and improve flexibility and mobility of the body.
