Lower back muscle pain

Lower back muscle pain is mostly due to improper posture, from an unaccustomed or awkward exertion, from abuse of the body from some sport, from simple fatigue, or quite often is the expression of psychological problems such as depression, anxiety or frustration. The intensity of the pain varies greatly from one person to another. For one person it may be sudden, acute and agonising with motor impairment of the lower back. For another it may be low-keyed and chronic. Low level laser therapy restores blood circulation to the back muscles, relieves muscle tension, eases pain and promotes healing of injured tissue. Before considering laser therapy for home use always consult your health professional for a proper diagnosis, in fact never self treat pain of unknown origin.
