As we welcome spring in beautiful Scottsdale, Arizona, some of us may also be greeted with an unexpected guest—lower back pain. Often exacerbated by springtime activities like gardening, spring cleaning, or hiking, it’s no surprise that instances of low back discomfort can rise during this time of year. Fortunately, there’s no need to suffer in silence. Dr. Cameron Khavari and the team at TriMotus are here to provide effective solutions and world-class care to get you back on your feet.
Why Does Low Back Pain Increase During the Spring?
After staying largely inactive during the chill of the winter months, the sudden indulgence in physical activity as the weather warms can put a significant strain on our lower back muscles. This, coupled with an increased time spent outdoors on terrains that may not provide the best support for our backs, often leads to heightened lower back pain in the spring season. Several studies have suggested this correlation, noting a surge in low back pain cases during this time.

We primarily use manual therapy techniques and corrective exercises to treat low back pain effectively. We may also use other treatment modalities as appropriate, including cold laser therapy, cupping therapy, or dry needling.
Causes of Low Back Pain
Low back pain affects millions of people worldwide. One of the primary culprits is poor posture, often from prolonged sitting or standing in awkward positions. This places undue stress on the muscles and ligaments of the lower back, leading to discomfort and pain. Additionally, sudden movements or improper lifting of heavy objects can strain these muscles, exacerbating the issue.
Degenerative conditions like osteoarthritis and herniated discs also play a significant role, as they weaken the spine’s structural integrity over time. Understanding these various factors is crucial for effectively managing and preventing low back pain, empowering individuals to take proactive steps towards a healthier, pain-free lifestyle.
