If you have chronic low back pain or sciatica, it's easy to think that the pain is all coming from tissue damage like a disc bulge, a disc herniation, disc degeneration, tight muscles, or a pinched nerve. . Research shows that in most cases of chronic pain, a large portion of the pain is NOT from damage, but rather from inflammation and hypersensitization of the nerves in the spinal cord, through a process called central sensitization. .

This is crucial in understanding the difference between safe pain and unsafe pain during chronic low back pain and sciatica rehab. . . #lowbackpain #lowbackpainrelief #lowbackpainexercises #discherniation #sciaticarelief #sciatica #sciaticatreatment . . ⚠️ THIS IS NOT MEDICAL ADVICE!
