It usually doesn’t happen all at once.

𝗜𝘁 𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗿𝘁𝘀 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵:
• Sitting a little longer than usual
• Carrying stress in your body without noticing
• Ignoring that “𝒔𝒎𝒂𝒍𝒍 𝒂𝒄𝒉𝒆” because life is busy
• Telling yourself, “𝑰𝒕’𝒍𝒍 𝒈𝒐 𝒂𝒘𝒂𝒚.”

Until one day, your back reminds you it’s been keeping score.

𝗕𝗮𝗰𝗸 𝗽𝗮𝗶𝗻 𝗶𝘀 𝗼𝗳𝘁𝗲𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗿𝗲𝘀𝘂𝗹𝘁 𝗼𝗳 𝗽𝗮𝘁𝘁𝗲𝗿𝗻𝘀, 𝗻𝗼𝘁 𝗮𝗰𝗰𝗶𝗱𝗲𝗻𝘁𝘀.
And when we change the pattern, the pain often changes too.

If this sounds familiar, you’re not alone.
If your back pain story feels a little too relatable, let’s talk.

In this new video, Irvin Eisenberg, OT and Structural Integrator at Resilience Occupational Therapy, explains why back pain often comes from other systems in the body.

You’ll learn:
✅ How digestion and abdominal pressure can create back pain
✅ Why your fascia — from feet to head — plays a major role in tension
✅ How biomechanics (feet, knees, hips) influence low back load
✅ How your nervous system + fear of movement can intensify pain

If you want a clear, whole-body understanding of where pain really comes from (and what you can do about it), this video will shift the way you think about your back.

𝗕𝗮𝗰𝗸 𝗽𝗮𝗶𝗻 often returns because the 𝒑𝒂𝒕𝒕𝒆𝒓𝒏 causing it has never changed.
Fascia tension, core weakness, limited hip mobility, and stress all contribute — and your body remembers these patterns.
