Discover the Connection Between the Psoas Muscle and Low Back Pain
Introduction
Low back pain is a widespread issue that affects millions of people worldwide. It not only hinders daily activities but also impacts overall quality of life. One common cause of low back pain is a shortened psoas muscle, which can lead to imbalances in the quadratus lumborum and glute muscles. At RECVR, we have developed a comprehensive $200/month membership plan that includes personalized wellness and sports therapy sessions designed to help you address these issues and achieve a pain-free life.
The Shortened Psoas and Its Impact on Low Back Pain
The psoas muscle is a critical component of maintaining a healthy posture, connecting the lower back to the hip. When this muscle becomes tight or shortened, it can lead to low back pain and disrupt the balance of surrounding muscles. Several research studies support the link between a shortened psoas muscle and low back pain (1, 2).
Quadratus Lumborum Imbalance
A tight psoas can cause an imbalance in the quadratus lumborum, a muscle that stabilizes the lower back and hips. This can lead to discomfort and limited mobility, negatively impacting your daily life. Research has shown that addressing quadratus lumborum imbalances through targeted therapy can help alleviate low back pain (3).
Glute Weakness & Dysfunction
When the psoas muscle is shortened, it can cause the glute muscles to become weak and dysfunctional. This puts additional strain on the lower back and can exacerbate low back pain. Studies have demonstrated the importance of glute strengthening in reducing low back pain and improving overall musculoskeletal health (4).
Patterns That Cause Low Back Pain
Poor posture, sedentary lifestyles, and repetitive movements can contribute to a shortened psoas and low back pain. It's essential to address these patterns to prevent pain and improve overall well-being.
