5 ways osteopathy can help with low back pain:

By Leann Mai (M. OMSc) Manual Osteopathic Practitioner

1.        Redistribute the tension from the shoulders or legs due to exercise or stress

2.        Realign anterior  gravitational loading coming from ankles, hips, shoulders or head that is putting stress on the lower back to keep you upright

3.         Reset the tension through the abdominal muscles  that might be compressing the abdomen

4.        Coordinate the spring-like design through the spine to make sure the curves are supporting each other from head to pelvis allowing open communication through the nervous system

5.        Remove torsional patterns that have become fixed, from the top of the rib cage through to the bottom of the rib cage , pulling through the lower back and pelvis on uneven tensions
