Lower back pain and twisted torso

I am currently suffering from severe lower back pain and "twisted torso" i.e. I cant stand up straight. This occured after a session at the gym. I am 46 and have recently increased my weight to 120lb dumb bells. About 3 years ago I was diagnosed with 2 herniated discs and after rest and some core workout this went away (or so I thought). If I am seated for any length of time I find I cant stand but if I stretch and massage the painful area my posture is better but still twisted. Please help.

he disc herniation's may or may not be the cause of your pain. The best thing that you have done is strengthen your core to better support your spine. You didn't mention any pain in the legs so Best guess is that it is a pelvic shift causing your pain which responds well with chiropractic, stretching and later some massage. Over time if left unchecked, your abnormal posture will start to aggravate your discs. Hope this helps. Let me know if we can help. 8109822700
