Low back pain relief in Briargate, Colorado Springs

While the holidays are over officially over, many people in Colorado Springs are noticing that their lower back pain is lingering from December. Did you suppress the pain throughout the holidays and you are just now noticing it well into January? Are the long car rides, the same commutes to work, extra sitting, plane trips, standing for extended periods of time, disrupted routines, and elevated stress levels getting to you all at once now that you have room to breathe? All of these high demands increase stress levels on your muscles and connective tissue supporting your spine. When we are too involved in high stress environments, we are triggering our fight-or-flight mode in our body and this is generally unintentional. When we are in this mode, we are constantly on high alert, our adrenaline is pumping, causing high blood pressure, cortisol spikes, blood flow restrictions, our digestion slows because we are on such high alert, and the list goes on. We want to be in our rest-and-digest phase on a consistent basis known as our parasympathetic state. Not our sympathetic state where we are always on high alert.

Due to the heightened stress levels of the holiday season, we see a consistent January spike in sciatica, lumbar stiffness, and hip restriction, especially among hard charging healthcare workers, and working parents, at Inspire Movements Massage Therapy in Briargate, Colorado Springs.

Why This Happens During the holiday season

your body experiences:

Reduced movement variability

Prolonged sitting and driving Increased muscular guarding from stress

These patterns overload the deep stabilizing muscles that traditional massage may have difficulty treating for long durations within a single session. However, Ashiatsu massage is able to overcome this particular barrier and affect both the muscles and those nerves modulating that muscle’s tone.

The Therapeutic Solutions

We specialize exclusively in ashiatsu massage and cupping therapy, these two techniques are designed to address deep-seated tension and restore functional movement. Ashiatsu massage allows sustained, controlled pressure to decompress the spine and lengthen chronically tight muscles Cupping therapy brings tension closer to the surface, increases circulation, and reduces inflammation This combination supports real progress on pain, not temporary relief.
