It seems like there's nothing better for an aching body than crawling into bed, but if you have lower back pain, a good night's sleep might be a distant dream. Whether a painful lower back is keeping you up, or a long rest somehow leaves your back aching more, getting a good sleep with lower back pain can seem impossible.
Research has shown that chronic lower back pain can affect multiple aspects of sleep, from how quickly you drift off to how refreshed you feel the next morning. And with roughly 8% of the world experiencing lower back pain, that's a lot of missed sleep.
