Lower Back Pain from Gym or Sitting? How to Fix It Properly in London

Introduction

Lower back pain is one of the most common issues we see — whether it’s from heavy lifting, long hours sitting, or poor movement patterns.


The problem? Most people treat the symptoms, not the cause.


That’s why the pain keeps coming back.


What Causes Lower Back Pain?

Lower back pain is rarely just about the back.

It’s often caused by:

  • Tight hips and hamstrings

  • Weak core stability

  • Poor lifting technique

  • Long periods of sitting

These create tension and overload in the lower back.

Quick fixes like stretching or rest don’t solve the issue.

  • Compensation patterns develop

  • Pain returns quickly
