What can you see in the clip?

Prolonged sitting in a poor posture changes the biomechanics of the back by shortening some muscles and stretching others. This muscle imbalance creates constant tension that compresses and inflames adjacent nerves, resulting in persistent nerve-related pain. The clip places this within “Neuralgia in the lower back” so it is easier to understand what is happening in the area, not only where symptoms are felt.
