Massage Treatment for Lower Back Pain

Massage therapy can provide substantial healing and pain relief for people suffering from low back pain caused by muscle tension and strain, if the correct muscles are targeted.

Regular massage of the extensor muscles, quadratus lumborum and gluteus medius muscles can quickly alleviate lower back pain. Massage using moderate to light pressure with the addition of arnica used in the massage oil can have lasting positive effects.

Arnica is a natural pain reliever that doesn’t just mask the pain; it actually stimulates your body’s healing processes. Arnica is especially recommended for pain that derives from trauma (such as a fall) or inflammation (such as arthritis). Arnica offers a safe alternative remedy for pain, without the risks associated with over-the-counter NSAIDs or prescription pain medicine.
