We are more and more led to make less effort. The changes taking place all around us compel us to do ever less exercise. Who would have imagined that the whole earth could be confined and everyone locked up in their homes for several months? 

On a daily basis, our body needs to be in movement, even for a few minutes. This warms up the muscles and keeps them in shape. Without exercise, you lose both strength et endurance, which makes you more susceptible to certain physical pains.

This particularly impacts your lumbar and therefore affects your entire back. Thus causing the lumbago, sciatica, Scoliosis or the kyphosis. Some may be at the level of vertebrae and others will directly impact your spine.

The problem is that the back is what connects your main elements: your head, your arms and your legs. Back pain can therefore become really disabling when the symptoms become severe.
