Many people do not know what a psoas is or how it functions, but you find out very fast when it malfunctions. It is a muscle that attaches to the lower spine, lays over the hip area and when out of balance can cause a lot of pain in the lower back, hip area and / or legs. Chiropractic can help, but simple stretches can also help you find balance and get you back on your feet without stumbling pain.
