Struggling with Back Pain?

If you’re currently struggling with back pain, you’re not alone. Back pain is a leading cause of disability across the world, and a key reason why people miss work and other commitments. Back pain can be excruciating to the point where you’re unable to function optimally or even enjoy life. This type of pain may occur suddenly in the event of an injury such as a fall or gradually because of other factors such as poor posture, overexertion, and strains.

Causes of Back Pain?

If you have back pain, it may be as a result of any of the below reasons:

• Muscle or ligament strain as a result of heavy lifting or poor physical condition
• Ruptured disks. Disks are the cushions located between the vertebrae of your spine.
• Osteoarthritis
• Skeletal irregularities such as scoliosis
• Osteoporosis

Our chiropractors will conduct a comprehensive evaluation to determine the source of your back pain. A thorough examination allows our chiropractor to come up with a personalized treatment plan that will be effective in addressing your back pain.

What Happens During Treatment?

Depending on your circumstances, chiropractic treatment for your back pain may begin during your first or second visit to Cornerstone Chiropractic. Some of the chiropractic treatments available for back pain near you include:

Spinal Manipulation: Spinal manipulation, or manual manipulation, involves the application of a high-velocity thrust to the affected area of your spine, to achieve spinal re-alignment. Many times, back pain is a result of spinal misalignment due to work strains, poor posture, and other issues. Spinal manipulation provides instant relief, but you’ll need several sessions before you can be free of back pain.

Spinal Mobilization: A gentler version of spinal manipulation. During spinal mobilization, our chiropractor utilizes low-velocity thrusts to restore motion and alleviate tension from your spine.

Our chiropractor may also utilize exercise and heat and ice therapy to help you overcome your back pain.
