Cycling is an extremely popular low impact activity that can cause routine lower back pain and muscle strain.
- Putting your seat too-high seat leads poor posture which in turn puts added strain on your lumbar muscles
- Keeping you handlebars low may make you go faster but it also leads to lower back strains, and even neck strain as you force your chin up to look ahead
- An accident or collision puts you at risk for potential spinal injuries, whiplash, dislocation, and fractures
If you’re an avid cyclist experiencing routine pain or you recently injured in an accident, please don’t hesitate to schedule a consultation to evaluate your spine for potential problems. Although an experienced spine surgeon, I also offer non-surgical treatments to get back in the seat!
