    • Health & Fitness

Provider of self-help for lower back pain and sciatica, Clinical Director of Active X Backs and Edinburgh Osteopath Gavin Routledge answers the question “How can low back pain be due to stress?”

There is a bit of neurobiology in here, but Gavin does his best to use metaphors so that anyone can follow along. (Although he does tie himself in knots a little at times, so be aware - his explanations aren’t perfect!!)

There is reference to The Pain Equation.  You can find out all about The Pain Equation here: https://backpainandsciatica.com/5-why-does-my-lower-back-hurt-so-much-part-1-being-stung-by-a-wasp/

Pain = Nociception - Movement Without Pain + (Negative Outlook - Positive Outlook) + Attention To Body Part + Previous Volume of Pain
