One of the most common problems that we see at my Chiropractic office in Springfield, VA is lower back pain. One main cause of lower back pain is tight hip muscles. Most of my patients sit for long periods time for work and this causes the hip muscles to tighten up. When your hip muscles tighten up this places all the stress that should occur in the hip on the lower back. The lower back is not made to withstand this amount of stress. Eventually this will cause lower back pain. Here is a video demostrating simple hip stretches which will loosen up your tight hips and get rid of your lower back. Try these stretches if you suffer from hip pain or lower back pain.
