Weak back muscles don’t allow fluid spinal motion in low back pain patients. Most Chiropractic Clinic knows this isn’t good for our Murfreesboro back pain patients! What makes these muscles weak? Fat. With back pain comes more fat infiltration into the back muscles, muscles like the lumbar multifidus muscles which greatly influence the range of motion in lumbar spine. Fattier multifidi, less lumbar flexion. (1)
