Back pain (also known "dorsalgia") is pain felt in the back that may originate from the muscles, nerves, bones, joints or other structures in the spine.
The pain may have a sudden onset or it can be a chronic pain, it can be felt constantly or intermittently, stay in one place or refer or radiate to other areas. It may be a dull ache, or a sharp or piercing or burning sensation. The pain may be felt in the neck (and might radiate into the arm and hand), in the upper back, or in the low back, (and might radiate into the leg or foot), and may include symptoms other than pain, such as weakness, numbness or tingling.
Back pain is one of humanity's most frequent complaints. In the U.S., acute low back pain (also called lumbago) is the fifth most common reason for all physician visits. About nine out of ten adults experience back pain at some point in their life, and five out of ten working adults have back pain every year.

There are millions of people suffering from back pain every day of their lives. Many of these people have tried lower back exercises, said to facilitate the back pain.

If you try to do the maximum distance an exercise can be open until the end margins or damage something that was OK, before you busy. In the best case, the compound your situation to delay the healing process process.

The same is true for inversion therapy. If you do, what they do, the images on the Web site that sell these devices, while with acute back pain, you painfully sorry. I know that I was.
