    Why Stretching Your Low Back May Actually Make It Worse | Disc Injuries, Sciatica & Low Back Pain

    In this episode, Dr. Cassidy Boelk discusses one of the biggest misconceptions surrounding low back pain and sciatica — the idea that stretching is always helpful. Many people automatically assume that if their back feels tight or stiff, they should aggressively stretch it. However, for some individuals dealing with disc injuries, sciatica, nerve irritation, or flexion intolerance, repeated bending and stretching movements may actually continue aggravating the irritated tissue. Topics discussed in this episode include:• why not all back pain is the same• muscle tightness vs disc irritation• how bending forward can increase disc pressure• why temporary relief does not always equal healing• Stuart McGill concepts including “willow branch vs oak tree” body types• why treatment should be individualized• MRI misconceptions and false positives• why proper evaluation and movement assessment matter• stabilization vs mobility approaches• why some stretches help certain people while making others worse The goal of this episode is to help educate listeners about spinal conditions, movement patterns, rehabilitation principles, and the importance of understanding WHY pain is happening rather than simply chasing temporary symptom relief.
