Understanding back pain

Why your back hurts and what to do about it

Back pain is the leading cause of disability worldwide — and one of the top reasons people visit a chiropractor. It can range from a dull, persistent ache to sudden sharp pain that makes it difficult to move.

The spine is a complex structure of bones, discs, muscles, ligaments, and nerves. When any component is out of alignment or under excessive strain — from an injury, poor posture, repetitive movement, or degeneration — it can cause pain both locally and in other areas of the body.

Chiropractic care works by addressing the mechanical source of your pain. Rather than masking symptoms with medication, we restore proper spinal alignment and function so your body can heal naturally.

Common symptoms

Aching or stiffness in the lower, middle, or upper back
Sharp, shooting pain in the back or buttocks

Pain that radiates into the hips or legs
Reduced range of motion or difficulty straightening up

Common causes

Muscle strain or sprain
Herniated or bulging disc

Our approach

How we treat back pain

We tailor the combination of treatments to what's causing your specific back pain — not a generic protocol.

Chiropractic Adjustments

Precise manual adjustments to restore spinal alignment, reduce nerve irritation, and relieve the mechanical pressure driving your back pain.

Spinal Decompression

For disc-related back pain, decompression therapy gently opens up space between vertebrae to relieve pressure and allow discs to heal.

Massage Therapy

Relieves muscle tension and spasm that accompany back pain, improves circulation to injured tissues, and works alongside adjustments for faster results.

Rehab & Home Exercises

Strengthening exercises for the muscles that support your spine, reducing future injury risk and helping you maintain the results of your treatment.
