Cordyceps And Lower Back Pain

In Chinese medicine theory, if you have low back pain it can be a symptom of a kidney energy weakness.  Low back and knee pain are classic symptoms of low kidney energy.  Your kidney energy naturally declines as you age.  Sometimes you are not born with very strong kidney energy.  Your kidney energy is inherited from your mother.  If she had weak kidneys, you might have never had a chance to have good kidney energy.

Cordyceps is a classic kidney tonic.  Kidney tonics can be taken to strengthen kidney energy.  They are often taken long term as energy tonics.

If your kidney energy is weak, you might not get rid of your low back pain until that is addressed.  There are special herbal formulas that are used by acupuncturists to treat low back pain.  They are typically used for chronic low back pain.


You can try Cordyceps Power on its own.  If your back pain is caused by a kidney energy weakness, it will usually resolve in a month.  Of course, there are other causes of back pain.  Slipped discs, bulging discs, discs that are just worn down over time can start to irritate the nerves in your back.
