Many people feel they can’t sleep due to back pain. It is a rather common complaint for those suffering. Often people question whether the issue is their mattress. This leads to many spending thousands of dollars trying to solve their problem by buying a new mattress. Sometimes a new mattress works to solve the issue. However, too often the back pain remains, frustrating the individual.
What happens next is a nasty cycle of disrupted sleep and continued pain. Because the person does not sleep well due to pain this results in chemical changes in the body leaving them more sensitive to pain. This sensitivity to pain can make it harder to get comfortable to fall asleep. And round and around the person goes; remember a cycle.
Well, if a new mattress does not work, and I am caught in the disrupted sleep pain cycle, what can I do?
The answer is to find the root cause of the problem…beyond the difficulty sleeping. By learning the reason for the pain, a plan can be enacted to work to solve the problem. This may include working on range of motion, flexibility, strengthening, endurance, or coordination. How do I go about finding out the solution as to what is necessary to work on?
