Lower back pain in Castelldefels
The lower back concentrates the load of a sedentary routine, poorly distributed efforts and a lack of movement. Joan Jiménez, registered naturopath (FENACO 3802), assesses how that load is shared between the lumbar area, hip and glutes, and works the tissue involved to restore range and stability.
Signs we see in consultation
Lower back load follows a fairly characteristic pattern:
- Stiffness in the lower back on getting up.
- Discomfort that grows after long periods standing or seated.
- Difficulty bending down or standing up smoothly.
- A sense of locking up on a sudden movement.
- Tension spreading toward the hip or glute.
Why it settles in
Mechanical lower back load usually comes from a sum of factors: a sedentary routine, poor support when seated, lifting weight without distributing the effort, little variety of movement and sustained tension. The lumbar muscles and abdominal girdle lose balance and the area is overloaded.
When that imbalance persists, the tissue hardens and the area loses range. Manual work aims to release that retention, restore local circulation and return stability and range to everyday movement.
Approach and method
Joan assesses how you move and where the load is actually held: in the lower back the origin is often shared between the hip, the glutes and how you support yourself when seated.
On that reading he applies deep manual work with TNDR (Natural Unblocking Regenerating Technique), matching intensity to how the tissue responds. The aim is not to press harder, but to release in the right order so the change holds.
An integrative service, not just a massage
Joan does not work with a single technique. Depending on what the assessment shows, he combines TNDR integrative massage in one session with decontracting work, facial and TMJ work, foot reflexology, biomagnetism, reiki or Access Bars. The combination is decided case by case, with no closed protocols.
