One possible cause for the listed pains is our sedentary leisure and work behavior. Many of us sit from morning to night either in the car, on the office chair or on the couch in front of the television. Various jobs can be quite movement-intensive, for example waitresses or assembly line workers, but these activities often lead to one-sided stress and muscular imbalances. This is also true if you play certain sports (e.g. Tennis, golf) very intensively.
