What causes lower back pain?
-
Lower back pain can be caused by a variety of factors, including poor posture, muscle strain from overuse or sudden movements, injury, or underlying conditions such as arthritis or herniated discs. In yoga, we often see lower back pain resulting from tight hamstrings, weak core muscles, or imbalances in the body. Practicing yoga can help alleviate lower back pain by strengthening the muscles that support the spine, improving flexibility, and promoting proper alignment. It's essential to listen to your body, practice mindfully, and work with a qualified yoga instructor to ensure you're using proper form and alignment to prevent and address lower back pain.
