Lower Back Pain or Gluteus Medius? | Zarifa USA

Before you jump the gun and chalk up your lower back pain to spinal injury, consider treating Gluteus Medius Muscle Pain, or Commonly Referred to as Butt Pain.

The Gluteus Medius is so often involved with lower back pain it is sometimes called the “Lumbago Muscle”

Relieving this muscle of unnecessary tension or trigger points improves lower back pain in most cases. 

What is the Gluteus Medius?

In Scientific Terms the Gluteus Medius is one of them: 


Three gluteal muscles and is a broad, thick, radiating muscle, situated on the outer surface of the pelvis.

Its posterior third is covered by the gluteus maximus, its anterior two-thirds by the gluteal aponeurosis, which separates it from the superficial fascia and integument.
