Description

Struggling with low back pain? What if the key to improving a cranky back was actually in your hips?
Listener Heather asks: “My low back has been flaring up like crazy lately. I went to the chiropractor and showed him where I hurt, and he mentioned that my psoas muscle could be to blame. So, can you explain this to me - why would my psoas muscle make my back hurt? And then what should be my game plan to help this?”
Thanks for asking, Heather! Take a listen to this quick episode chock-full of tips to help tackle low back pain.

I’ll explain exactly what the psoas muscle is and why it might be causing you back pain.


We’ll review stretches and exercises that can both treat current pain and help prevent future flare-ups.


I’ll teach you tricks for trigger point release that can help relieve pain (spoiler: you’ll want your foam roller handy!).

You don’t have to live with back pain - and I can help you tackle the issue at the source!
