Upper & Lower Back PainLow back painLow back pain is the second most common reason for missed work days after the common cold. Research has shown chiropractic to be the most therapeutically and cost effective way to treat symptoms of low back pain. Back pain is very often caused by misalignments and nerve compressions. These nerve compressions result in pain and muscle tension in the back or even sciatica (pain radiating down the leg). Chiropractic is the only form of healthcare that corrects the cause of these symptoms rather than the symptoms themselves. Pharmaceutical such as anti-inflammatories, muscle relaxers as well as massage and physical therapy are commonly used to treat symptoms of pain but rarely address the cause. Until you remove the reason for the symptoms they will always return and usually be more severe. If poor mechanics of the spine are ignored and allowed to exist, degeneration of the spine will be accelerated and eventually turn to arthritis. Probably sooner than you might think. |
