Causes of Back Pain
Back pain can be a real buzzkill. But understanding the causes can help find relief. Poor posture is a common culprit, especially if you spend long hours hunched over or slouching.
Another possible cause is muscle strain or sprain from strenuous physical activities without proper warm-up. Even something as simple as bending over to pick up a dropped pen can lead to back pain.
Sometimes, back pain may be attributed to herniated discs or spinal stenosis. These conditions put pressure on the nerves in your back, resulting in discomfort that radiates down your legs.
Inflammation is another factor. Conditions like arthritis or ankylosing spondylitis can cause this in the joints of your spine, leading to stiffness and discomfort.
Stress and emotional tension have been known to physically manifest as back pain. When under pressure, our muscles tend to tense up, leading to increased muscle fatigue and potential soreness.
Understanding these various causes of back pain is crucial for finding effective solutions tailored specifically for you. So let's delve into Malouf's approach towards relieving this pesky condition!

Other Ways to Relieve Back Pain
There are strategies that help alleviate back pain, aside from the right bedding.
- Physical activity strengthens core muscles, improves posture, and relieves tension. Low-impact exercises like walking, swimming, or yoga won't strain your back.
- Gentle stretching exercises improve flexibility and reduce stiffness. Focus on stretches that target the lower back, hips, and hamstrings.
- Applying heat to the affected area can provide temporary relief, increasing blood flow and relaxing tense muscles. You can use a heating pad or take a warm bath before bedtime.
- If inflammation is causing your back pain, applying cold packs or ice wrapped in a towel for 15-20 minutes several times a day may help reduce swelling and numb the area.
- Maintaining proper posture throughout the day is crucial for keeping your spine aligned correctly. Use ergonomic chairs, adjust computer screens to eye level, and avoid slouching.
