#4 ❗Busting the Back Pain Myth: It’s Not Always Your Spine
Most people think low back pain = spinal damage. But 90% of cases are Non-Specific Low Back Pain (NSLBP).
That means:
⚠️ No herniation.
⚠️ No fracture.
⚠️ No visible injury.
Just real pain… with a different cause — and a better solution.
🔍 What Actually Causes NSLBP?
  • 🔸 Muscle tension from overuse or poor posture
  • 🔸 Psychological stress (your nervous system remembers)
  • 🔸 Sedentary lifestyle, weak core, or obesity
  • 🔸 Fear and misinformation from unnecessary MRI/X-ray results
✅ What Helps Most?
  • Movement — not bed rest
  • Education — not fear
  • Active therapy — not surgery
  • Mindset shift — not just medications
🧠 You don’t need a perfect spine to be pain-free.
You need a better strategy.
