<p class="p1"><span class="s1">Ouch, my back! is this a familiar phrase for you? If yes, you are certainly not alone. Back pain is probably one of the most common medical problems. 8 out of 10 people have experienced back pain at least once in their lives. This can vary from a constant pain, dull pain, sudden and sharp pain.</span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">It can be a frustrating problem because it disrupts our day to day living and it limits our ability to do tasks.</span></p>

[/et_pb_image][et_pb_text _builder_version="3.3.1"]<p class="p1"><span class="s1">The exact cause of back pain is actually not that easy to diagnose, this is because our back is quite a complex area of our body, it is composed of interconnected muscle groups from the neck down to the coccyx (tailbone) and it houses the spine which in itself complex.</span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">There are many factors affecting the health of our back, you could be experiencing back pain due to an underlying medical condition such as <em>sciatica</em>, <em>scoliosis</em>, <em>arthritis</em>, and <em>meningitis</em>.</span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">But the one main factor is <em>posture</em>. <strong>Posture</strong> is probably the number <strong>1 culprit of back pain</strong>.</span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">A quick story to share. About 3 years ago I managed to injure my back I wasn’t even sure how it happened but it was terrible. The areas around my neck down to my shoulders and shoulder blades were so stiff. It was so painful at one point, I went to see a physiotherapist who taught me some passive exercises it got better but I was still feeling some dull pain which was very uncomfortable. I like to be active and be outdoors so having this problem really annoyed me. This problem persisted for like more than a year! so just imagine my frustration. </span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">I was so determined to do something about this so I went to try different exercises and watched a few youtube videos about back health. Then I considered doing <strong>Yoga and I fell in love with it!</strong></span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1"><strong>Yoga</strong> is by far the best type of exercise I’ve done. Because <strong>Yoga heals and strengthens you</strong>. It has this balance of <strong>physical</strong> and <strong>mental</strong> exercise. Yoga is also great for developing a good posture.</span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">Since I have been doing Yoga I have never felt this good in my body, I feel lighter and stronger than ever.</span></p>
<p class="p1"><span class="s1">Here are some Yoga poses you can try to relieve back pain.</span></p>
