Stretching your quads properly, without lapsing into an arched low back, is tough. Consistently tight quads have very much to do with chronic low back pain. And, in the world of 'sitting syndrome', quads don't get much opportunity to lengthen!

Basically, the rote belief of "you're getting old" or "it's arthritis" are NOT the reasons you have pain and relief is most definitely possible!
Best physical therapy dictates treating you AS A WHOLE dynamic, complex being... that means the joint ("pulley"), muscle ("lever arm"), fascia, areas above and below, etc. Intervention should be multifaceted and involve lifestyle change as well as manual intervention for restoring full mechanics of the pain area and surrounding regions!
