Have you ever struggled with lower back pain or injured your back before? As a strength coach and personal trainer, I've also gone through my own journey of dealing with and recovering from lower back pain, as well as managing it through injury prevention techniques. Lower back pain is a common concern that many people worry about when they start their fitness journey, but there are often misunderstandings about it. That's why I've brought in a top-notch expert to help us break it down.
In today's episode, I'm joined by someone I've collaborated with before, Dr. Ross Gentry, the founder of Be Ready PT (Performance Therapy) and a highly respected physical therapy expert in Nashville. With an impressive background, including a Doctorate in Physical Therapy from Belmont University, as well as certifications as a CrossFit Level 2 Trainer, Certified Strength & Conditioning Coach, and in Dry Needling, Dr. Gentry brings a wealth of knowledge to the conversation.
During this episode, we explore the world of lower back pain as Dr. Gentry explains its key factors. We also touch on how stress and emotions can affect it and clear up some common misconceptions.
In this episode, you'll discover:
- The usual causes of lower back pain and the myths surrounding it
- Practical tips for preventing injuries
- The impact of stress and emotions on physical pain
- Helpful tricks to relieve lower back pain symptoms
- When to see a Physical Therapy vs Chiropractic Care for Lower Back Pain
