It has been estimated that approximately 50% of pregnant women will suffer from some kind of low back pain at some point during their pregnancies or during the postpartum period. Pregnancy related low back pain, seems to be a result of quite a few factors, such as mechanical, hormonal and other. One third of them will suffer from severe pain, which will reduce their quality of life. The majority of women are affected in their first pregnancy (Pregnancy-related low back pain, Katonis et al.).
