Summer should be a time for relaxation and fun, but can come with its fair share of stress. Here are some common summer stressors that can trigger back pain:

• Busy Schedules: Between BBQ’s, family reunions, and kids activities, your schedule may be very full. Constant multitasking can lead to tension in your back muscles.
• Travel Planning: Organizing trips can be exciting, but can be stressful as well. From booking flights to carrying heavy bags, it can all take a toll on your back.
• Overexertion: Yard work and doing a lot of outdoor activities can leave your body feeling overworked.
