What are the most common causes of back pain?

The root cause of one’s back pain can be as unique as the person experiencing it and the life they live. However, some common causes include:

  • Injuries from auto, sports, or personal accidents
  • Overuse of the back muscles
  • Not using your muscles
  • Improperly lifting objects
  • Repetitive movements
  • Poor posture
  • Herniated discs
  • Sciatica
  • Being overweight
  • Arthritis
  • Degenerative disc disease
  • Scoliosis
  • Nerve compression

Why is chiropractic care so effective for back pain?

Chiropractic care is one of the most effective ways to treat back pain for one vital reason: it addresses the issue that is causing the pain. While providing immediate relief is a benefit, a chiropractor works to make sure that relief lasts – not just ease it for a time. Chiropractic care does more than cover the symptoms – it eliminates the source. It does this through natural, non-invasive methods that utilize and kickstart the body’s natural healing abilities.

What type of chiropractic techniques help back pain?

Various techniques can be utilized, depending on the cause of the pain. Some of the most common include:

  • Spinal adjustments
  • Spinal decompression therapy
  • Soft tissue manipulation, including massage therapy
  • Laser therapy
  • Therapeutic exercises

We will start by determining the source of your pain and understanding any lifestyle factors that might impact your spinal column. We will then develop a personalized treatment plan to ensure the most optimal results for your condition.

Is there any way to prevent back pain?

Keeping your core and spine strong is essential to preventing pain, as this helps support all of your movements throughout the day. If you’re overweight, dropping a few pounds can make a difference. Stretching each morning and evening can help reduce muscle tension. Also, keep good posture habits and proper lifting techniques.
