For many people, morning back pain is an every day thing.
They start every morning with the painful burning of getting out of bed.
Many have been to doctors looking for help.
Others have tried new mattresses and pads.
Some even try to fall asleep in a certain position, forgetting that they toss and turn into many different positions anyway no matter where they may start out.
But what most morning back pain sufferers never do is deal with the cause of the problem.
It has nothing to do with sleeping.
It is no different from any other back pain you feel during the day.
All back pain is caused by misshaped disc in your back.
Years of neglect and bad posture combined with gravity is the cause.
And yes, gravity still has an effect on your spine even if you are lying down.
Morning back pain is a sign of problems.
It is foolish to focus on stopping the pain without addressing the underlying cause.
The disc that are out of shape.
You can, or your body can, reshape the disc on its own if you will remove gravity for several minutes each day.
This is proven by astronauts that come back to earth an inch or two taller than when they left.
Mild inversion, about 20 degrees, will put your back in a gravity neutral position and allow the disc some time to naturally reshape themselves.
At that level of inversion, the more time you can give yourself the better.
If you do not have access to an inversion table, a piece of plywood propped up on a cinder block is about the right angle.
If your pain is chronic and acute, you may want to limit your inversion time until the pain is more bearable.
For total back pain relief, the right mix of gentle stretching and mild inversion will do the trick.
Morning back pain is a sign of awaits you 24 hours a day if you don't take care of the problems now.
