If you’re prone to low back pain
Massage therapists will know even if you don’t say so. When you lay on the table, will check to see if one hip is higher than the other. That type of misalignment is caused by tightness in the low back, a result of prolonged sitting or poor posture, and usually results in pain. When you’re on your back, they will also see how much space is between the table and your low back. Sometimes too much belly weight can cause the stressed gap which may also lead to aching.
