Most people think back pain comes from one big injury.
But for 9 out of 10 patients we see, it’s the little things they do every day that add up.

Here are 3 everyday habits that make your back pain worse (and what to do instead):

1️⃣ Sitting too long: Set a timer every 45–60 minutes to move. Try hip CARs, press ups, or standing extensions.

2️⃣ Ignoring small pains: Don’t wait until it’s bad. Early assessment prevents long-term compensation patterns.

3️⃣ Skipping warm-ups: Prep your body before loading it. Move like you’ll train — not just stretch and go.

Pain-free living doesn’t start with doing more, it starts with doing the right things consistently.

Share it with someone who’s always saying, “my back just feels tight.”

If you’ve ever walked out of an appointment thinking, “T𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗱𝗶𝗱𝗻’𝘁 𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗹𝗹𝘆 𝗳𝗶𝘅 𝗮𝗻𝘆𝘁𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗴,” you’re not alone.

Many active adults go from one provider to the next, hoping the next visit will finally uncover the real issue. Yet too often, treatments feel like quick patches rather than lasting solutions.

Here’s why:

- 𝙎𝙪𝙧𝙛𝙖𝙘𝙚-𝙡𝙚𝙫𝙚𝙡 𝙛𝙞𝙭𝙚𝙨. Most care focuses on treating the symptom, not the root cause. That’s why pain comes back the moment you get active again.
- 𝙍𝙪𝙨𝙝𝙚𝙙 𝙖𝙥𝙥𝙤𝙞𝙣𝙩𝙢𝙚𝙣𝙩𝙨. Ten minutes in, and you’re back out the door with little time to be truly heard.
- 𝘎𝙚𝙣𝙚𝙧𝙞𝙘 𝙖𝙙𝙫𝙞𝙘𝙚. You’ve probably been told to rest, stretch, or avoid the activity you love — but that’s not a long-term solution for someone who wants to stay active.

The truth is, your body deserves more than a temporary bandage.

At Elevate Spine and Sport, we take a different path. Instead of stopping at “what hurts,” we dig into 𝘄𝗵𝘆 it hurts. We listen, we assess movement, and we create a personalized plan that actually fits you and your lifestyle.

That means:

✔ Addressing the real problem, not just masking pain

✔ Time to explain what’s happening in your body so you feel confident

✔ A clear path forward so you can get back to doing what you love — without fear of the pain coming back

You don’t have to keep cycling through treatments that never last. There’s a better way, and it starts with a conversation.

Because the right care isn’t about telling you to stop moving. It’s about helping you move again with confidence.

Fun weekend spent with my brother! (Not so fun 2nd half 🙃)

When she first came to see us, her low back pain had been around for years.

Every time she squatted or bent down, her body compensated — her back worked harder than it should.

She’d tried PT and chiro before, but it was always the same plan — stretches, generic core work, short-term relief.

The real issue?

We focused on fixing how she moved, not just where it hurt.

Halfway through her plan, her squat pattern was completely different — smoother, stronger, and pain-free.

That’s what happens when you treat the root cause, not just the symptoms.

You’ve probably felt this before…

relief for a little while after treatment, only to have your pain sneak right back in.

It’s frustrating.

You do what you’re told, you rest, you take the meds, maybe even try a few stretches you found online.

For a moment, it feels like progress. But then it comes back — sometimes worse than before.

Here’s the truth most people aren’t told: 𝙢𝙤𝙨𝙩 𝙩𝙧𝙚𝙖𝙩𝙢𝙚𝙣𝙩𝙨 𝙤𝙣𝙡𝙮 𝙘𝙝𝙖𝙨𝙚 𝙨𝙮𝙢𝙥𝙩𝙤𝙢𝙨, 𝙣𝙤𝙩 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙧𝙤𝙤𝙩 𝙘𝙖𝙪𝙨𝙚.

It’s like mopping up water from a leaky ceiling without ever fixing the roof. You might dry the floor today, but tomorrow you’ll be right back where you started.

I have found time and time again. When patients are crystal clear on the root cause of their pain, they not only get better results, but are much more motivated to make a change.

At Elevate Spine and Sport, we do things differently. We spend the time to understand 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 body, 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 lifestyle, and the hidden factors that keep feeding your pain cycle.

Then we design a plan that doesn’t just give you short-term relief but actually restores strength, mobility, and confidence long term.

Because you deserve more than a quick fix. You deserve to move without the fear of pain controlling you.

No pressure, no commitments — just a real conversation about your health.

You don’t have to keep living in this cycle. There’s a way out, and it starts with getting to the root cause.

How many times have you been told that pain is “j𝘂𝘀𝘁 𝗽𝗮𝗿𝘁 𝗼𝗳 𝗴𝗲𝘁𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗼𝗹𝗱𝗲𝗿”?

Or that you should simply live with it because “e𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘆𝗼𝗻𝗲 𝗳𝗲𝗲𝗹𝘀 𝘀𝘁𝗶𝗳𝗳 𝘀𝗼𝗺𝗲𝘁𝗶𝗺𝗲𝘀”?

It is frustrating to hear advice like that when the pain keeps interfering with the things you love.

Deep down, you know something is off. You want more than a temporary fix — you want to feel normal again, not just “good enough to get by.”

Here’s the truth:

𝙮𝙤𝙪 𝙙𝙤𝙣’𝙩 𝙣𝙚𝙚𝙙 𝙩𝙤 𝙟𝙪𝙨𝙩 𝙙𝙚𝙖𝙡 𝙬𝙞𝙩𝙝 𝙞𝙩 𝙖𝙣𝙮𝙢𝙤𝙧𝙚.

At Elevate Spine and Sport, we’ve worked with so many people who thought they had no choice but to tolerate their pain.

Once they discovered what was actually causing it, and finally got a treatment plan tailored to their body and lifestyle, everything changed.

They weren’t given generic stretches, rushed appointments, or “just rest” instructions.

Instead, they got the tools and care to move again, train again, and live fully without being held back by constant discomfort.

👉 Imagine what life could look like if pain wasn’t running the show.

If you are tired of settling for “just deal with it,” then maybe it’s time to take that first, easy step toward change.

When pain doesn’t go away, most people assume it must be something obvious.

Maybe a herniated disc, arthritis, or just "w𝗲𝗮𝗿 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝘁𝗲𝗮𝗿."

But here’s something almost no one talks about: very often, it isn’t the visible problem on your MRI or X-ray that’s keeping you in pain.

Research has shown that a huge percentage of people with 𝙣𝙤 𝙥𝙖𝙞𝙣 𝙖𝙩 𝙖𝙡𝙡 still show disc herniations, bulges, or arthritis on their scans. In fact, more than 60% of pain-free adults have at least one of these changes.

So what does that tell us?

That pain is rarely explained by a single image. The real issue is what those scans can’t show — the way your muscles, joints, and movement patterns interact every single day. Poor habits, years of compensation, and small imbalances build up silently until one day the pain feels unshakable.

This is why pills, injections, or even rest might dull the pain for a while, but they don’t change the underlying patterns that keep bringing pain back.

The key takeaway: Imaging can be helpful, but it’s only one piece of the story. How you move, how your body adapts, and how resilient your system is often matter far more in the long run.

And this is exactly where our approach is different. At Elevate Spine and Sport, we don’t just look at what the scan shows — we look at how your whole body moves, how it compensates, and what’s driving the pain to keep coming back. That’s how we help patients finally move past temporary relief and find lasting change.
