Most Frequent Causes of Low Back Pain and Tilted Pelvis

It has been my experience that the most frequent causes of low back pain and tilted pelvis include:
  • Lower torso muscle strain.
  • Tightness of the iliopsoas muscle due to prolonged sitting and a lack of stretching.
  • Inflammation of the iliopsoas muscle due to chronic dehydration.
