Read over the following points regarding lower back pain to learn more about this condition and how chiropractic care can help.
Why Lower Back Pain Happens To People
There are many scenarios that could be the cause of a lower back pain problem. If you lift a heavy item without facing it and using your legs to shift the weight, your back is likely to suffer. Sitting or standing for long periods of time without taking breaks could cause lower back pain, especially if you have poor posture or do not use ergonomic tools, such as a lumbar support pillow. Lower back pain can often be a symptom from a personal injury, such as a vehicular accident or slip and fall.
How to Relieve Back Pain When It Occurs
When you feel back pain settling into your body, it is best to refrain from continuing with any type of strenuous activity so that the condition does not worsen. Rest will help minimize the intensity of the pain but it rarely fixes it. Placing a heating pad or ice on your back or lying in a bath of warm water can help relieve some pain. Another alternative is to seek assistance from our chiropractors.
What Our Chiropractor Can Provide To Help
Our chiropractors will ask you about the extent of your discomfort, the frequency in which you feel it, and any activities that exacerbate symptoms. This is helpful in determining exactly which portion of your back is affected so that proper treatment is administered. In many cases, the use of spinal adjustments will greatly reduce the discomfort felt in the back. This procedure is done in the comfort of our office and could have instant results.
Our chiropractors will gently move your spine by using manipulated movements along your back. In general these do not hurt and are non-invasive in nature. The spinal adjustments will allow for proper nerve function and blood circulation to continue without hindrance which help relieve joint stress effectively. Massage and exercise could also be beneficial in conjunction with routine spinal adjustments to reduce discomfort.
