What Are the Most Common Causes of Lower Back Pain? 🔍
Lower back pain rarely comes from a single issue. Instead, it develops through a combination of physical, lifestyle, and internal health factors.
Common causes we see in our akupunkturcenter i Frederiksberg include:
✔ Prolonged sitting and poor posture
✔ Repetitive lifting or overuse injuries
✔ Muscle tension and fascia stiffness
✔ Weak core muscles
✔ Chronic stress affecting muscle tone
✔ Poor blood circulation (Qi & Blood stagnation in TCM)
🧠 TCM perspective:
In traditional Chinese medicine, lower back pain is often related to Kidney Qi deficiency, cold-damp accumulation, or Qi stagnation in the lumbar meridians.
Why Does Physical Fatigue Often Come With Back Pain? ⚡
Have you noticed that lower back pain often comes together with constant tiredness?
This is not a coincidence.
Key fatigue-related factors include:
🔹 Poor sleep quality
🔹 Mental stress and burnout
🔹 Weak circulation and oxygen supply
🔹 Muscle over-compensation
🔹 Nervous system overload
In TCM-praksis, fatigue is linked to imbalances in:
- Qi (energy)
- Blood
- Kidney and Spleen systems
👉 Chinese massage stimulates the nervous system, improves circulation, and supports the body’s natural recovery processes—making it ideal for patients experiencing both pain and exhaustion.

How Does Chinese Massage Treat Lower Back Pain and Fatigue? 🤲
Chinese massage—often known as Tuina—is not a relaxation massage. It is a medical treatment technique based on meridian theory.
In our Klinik i Frederiksberg, treatment focuses on:
✔ Deep muscle release
✔ Fascia mobilization
✔ Acupressure on specific points
✔ Meridian stimulation
✔ Nervous system regulation
Treatment goals:
✅ Reduce pain
✅ Improve mobility
✅ Restore energy
✅ Prevent recurrence
Which Is Better: Acupuncture or Chinese Massage? 🤔
The answer depends on your condition—and often, the best results come from combining both.
