Is effective on lower back pain?

There's no research that shows taping your back relieves pain, but it won't hurt to try it. I'd suggest strengthening your multifidus muscles that have been shown to be weak in people with low back pain - Jim Johnson's stenosis book has some ex's for this. Hope this helps!

We can't predict for any individual, especially with no details about the condition, however many people with lower back pain have gotten relief from RockTape.

Yes, it strengthens and targets the core muscles. A stronger core will help the back.

The pain doctor recommended it for my husbands back. It was originally made for horses strains. My husband says it works like a charm!

I have used the foam roller for that purpose and it does give a bit of relief. It helps stretch out the tight lower lumbar muscles. It does help

The quantity you get could make covering the lower back price prohibitive, however I have lower back pain and used this product over that area with no noticeable change pain levels? Rosacea, Cancer, sensitive skin treatments are a definite yes for Comfry Ointment, back pain wouldn't surprise me, yet the old gut feeling is a "no".

Yes, you can, in my experience it either helps patients right away or does nothing. Also, since research is showing that people with back pain have weak multifidus muscles, check out Treat Your Own Spinal Stenosis for a few exercises to help that.

The ball is designed for lower back stretches. Inside the packaging will be picture and written exercises that you can do. I have found the exercises very effective at easing lower back discomfort and pain. I saw this on Dr. Oz last year.

hey there I usually apply them straight after a shower so I assume my lower back is "wetish" this is by far the best product I found for my lower back pains... I also managed to get my entire family addicted to it...

Hi Peter, I haven't noticed a reduction in back pain. However, I don't have back pain at the moment. I bought these because my calves are not handling my new running regimen. They work great for that.

I don't believe so. The stretch you get is more helpful for lower back pain.

It doesn't cause backache. A change in position from standing to sitting and anywhere in between is good ergonomics and promotes circulation and reduces sedentary positioning.

I didn't get pain relief that quickly. The back magic is meant more for stretching out your back, I believe. I use/used it to help relieve some of the pain, but more to keep those muscles stretched. Start slowly and increase time and curvature when you feel comfortable.

It could help. I bought one for my wife who had a sore on her bottom and it helped take the pressure off the sensitive area. Since pain is pain anything that helps eliminate some pain may help a lot.

Worked on my Lower Back & Hips. Only use if Vit. D levels were tested on the Vit. D3 Blood Test as Deficient.

I agree with previous comment - this is GREAT, but for the neck , not low back. I've also had lumbar back issues and use a back extension device called True Back Sport (got it years ago and not sure it's still available) - also for free so even better, I do McKenzie exercise for lumbar spine - which is lying on stomach on the floor, relaxing hips, pelvis and legs into floor then pushing upper body up with arms so back extends and holding for a while (I do a count of ten), then relax back down and repeat (5 to 10 times). This (plus some weight training, core body strengthening) has kept my lower back happy for years : ) I agree with previous comment - this is GREAT, but for the neck , not low back.
