What Causes My Particular Low Back Pain?
It is one of the most debilitating conditions in the US. There are many causes that overlap and inter-relate. Everyone’s pain is their own unique experience. However, as myofascial therapists, once you tell us about your pain, we immediately think about certain patterns and common low back pain causes.
According Wikipedia, muscles and connective tissues are the primary cause of this pain. We call that “myofascia”. And, when considering soft tissue, myofascial pain, the patterns of low back pain can be placed into one of several major categories. These categories correspond to the primary groups of muscles shown below.

Janet was great. FANTASTIC person who knew how to treat and deal with my conditions. Very informative. Finally someone who knew what I was talking about.
Really Good
It was interesting, and helpful for my IT band and hip
My experience was wonderful. Janet was very kind and attentive. I felt great after my session and would recommend to try it out.
The lady that assisted me was awesome! I suffer from fibromyalgia and when I left I felt like a brand new person! I plan to return when I get time!
Janet was great – knowledgeable and she found all my “hot spots.”
Seriously, if you are looking for massage therapy that actually does your body good–that changes its function for the better and actually makes pain go away–then this is the place you need to come. Not Massage Envy. Not a chiropractor. You need trigger point from knowledgeable experts in the craft.
If your have pain in any part of your body this is the place to go. It focus on the muscles where the pain is. you will feel like a new person. Awesome will be returning. Thanks nice friendly and attentive

Experienced therapist. Feel great after appointment…

What a great experience. The provider was able to recommend things I can do to improve my pain. Address issues I didn’t even share with her that she was able to tell just by her exam and treating me for what i went for. Will be back. Feeling grateful
I spent so much money on chiropractors. This is much better. Everybody should try it out.
Beautiful, relaxing setting. Therapist was knowledgable and professional. I’ll be going back. Thank you.
Janet is very informative. I loved that she explained which muscles/groups she was working on. I learned a lot about my posture and why some of my muscles are not activating. She also provided me with a list of considerations and excercises to improve my posture. I will be back!
Janet has a unique gift and talent in trigger point therapy. I’m definitely seeing her again!
