Studies have shown that approximately 80% or more of the population will suffer from some form of low back pain. Injuries and pain can range from minor sprains or strains to severe injuries, herniations, spinal joints (segments) that lack stability or even just over time. Pain can be noted from ligament sprains, muscle strains or imbalances, traumatic activities, disc injuries with and without herniations or compensations of getting older.
