Natural Synergy employs a combination of two Acu-therapies: Acupressure and Acu-Acoustics to extinguish strong pain while accelerating the healing process.
And because you can do it by yourself at home you don’t need to spend countless hours (and thousands of dollars) on an acupuncturist.
It often begins with a tingle in your throat or a single sneeze, followed by a headache, drowsiness, a runny nose and nagging cough. It’s official, you’ve caught a virus.
The question is, have you been infected by the constantly mutating influenza virus, known as the flu? Or is it one of the 200 strains of the common cold virus?

I decided to write an article about reducing lower back pain while having sex because it’s a conversation many of my clients are too embarrassed to ask, and I am a little afraid to bring up.
The reality is, your lower back pain is not only affecting you. It could be affecting your relationship with your significant other. Relationships are hard enough without the sexual frustration creeping into the mix.
Lower back pain affects the frequency of coitus. The World Health Organization regards healthy sexual relationships as a measurement of disability and overall health. ~84% of men suffering from lower back pain reported a decrease in frequency. ~34% of women said the same. 1,2
The fear of throwing your back out after a night of sex is natural. You may not be willing to risk laying on the floor for three days for a bit of pleasure. That is an entirely reasonable way of thinking.
If this is you, you are not the only one to feel this way.
Men and women alike are less sexually active during their low back recovery journey. Even an orgasm can bring on back pain for some men and women.
Some blog articles on this subject can be a little technical, while others can be too racy. I’ll do my best to make this article as informative, classy, and entertaining as possible. If you are not over 18 years old, exit this page now!
While I will only be focusing on mechanical factors of lower back pain during sex, I’m fully aware that more aspects could be contributing to your lower back pain.
You should always be examined by a sports chiropractor, physical therapist, medical doctor, or orthopedic who is willing to take a complete medical history and perform a thorough physical exam on your spine and hips.
This process can take between 45-90 minutes in most situations.
In this article, I will cover what I have learned to work well for my clients. While sex positions can be triggers for your lower back, other positions can be painless or possibly even therapeutic.
What sex positions your spine can tolerate can be found depends on your diagnosis and the results of thorough stress testing of your spine. X-rays and MRIs do not tell us the whole story.
Flexion Intolerant Low Back Pain
Read for men or women with lower back pain durning sex
A flexion intolerant lower back is simply that.
Your spine does not tolerate flexion/ rounding. While we can label this as a specific diagnosis, many lower back diagnoses can create flexion intolerance.
I learned of this classification terminology from reading Dr. Stuart McGill’s work years ago, which is more descriptive of what type of positions, postures, and activities would increase or decrease your lower back pain. Positions of intimacy can be assessed and paired with your spine’s tolerances.
As I mentioned before, a thorough medical history taking and physical examination can help you understand which of the three situations describes your situation.
Stuart McGill’s lay public book “Back Mechanic” is an excellent resource on more information about other ways to settle a flexion intolerant low back. The best money you can spend on a self-help lower back book!
Contrary to popular beliefs, spooning is not the safest way to protect your lower back during intercourse.
Let’s first dive into the three common lower back situations you may fall into in their “textbook” form.
Note: Nobody is a textbook case. 🙂
Afterward, we will cover how this information can help choose a better sex position for men and women.
In the medical history taking, there are lots of clues that you can give a skilled medical professional that your spine does not tolerant rounding, but these are not exclusive either:
With a flexion intolerant lower back you may notice you have lower back pain with the following situations:
More pain first hour in the morning
Morning stiffness
Worse with washing dishes
Bending forward to touch your toes
Hamstring stretching is painful
Hard to put on shoes (in fact, you may not even tie your laces)
Prolonged sitting hurts
Getting up from a chair is painful
Walking hurts the first few steps and then becomes comfortable
Pushing shopping carts is painful
Intense pain with coughing, sneezing, or going #2
“Bad Posture”
Deadlifting
Back squatting
Activities that generally feel good are:
Walks
Standing
Laying on your belly
Laying on your stomach propped up on your elbows, as if you’re reading a book
Computer/ laptop work on the floor on your belly
Lying face-up on a firm bed or the ground
Stretching your hip flexors
“Good posture”
Flexion intolerant lower backs tend to be related to lumbar spine disc herniations, protrusions, extrusions, or prolapse. Video Rating: / 5
