What Causes Back Pain?

Back pain can develop for many different reasons, including:

• Herniated or bulging discs
• Sciatica or nerve irritation
• Poor posture and spinal misalignment
• Muscle strain and tension
• Degenerative disc disease
• Sports injuries or auto accidents
• Chronic stress and tension on the spine

Because every case is different, proper evaluation is important before starting treatment.

Common Symptoms of Back Pain

Back pain can present differently from person to person. Common symptoms may include:

• Aching or stiffness in the lower back
• Sharp pain with movement
• Muscle tightness or spasms
• Pain that radiates into the hips or legs
• Difficulty standing upright comfortably
• Pain after sitting for long periods
• Reduced flexibility or mobility

Who Is This Treatment For?

Our approach to back pain treatment may be beneficial if you are experiencing:

• Chronic lower back pain
• Stiffness or reduced mobility
• Pain when sitting or standing for long periods
• Sharp or radiating pain in the hips or legs
• Recurring flare-ups
• Pain after an accident or injury
• Back pain interfering with sleep, work, or daily activities

Who Is This NOT For?

While chiropractic care can help many forms of back pain, some conditions require additional medical evaluation or emergency care.

You may not be a candidate for treatment if you have:

• Spinal fractures or severe instability
• Serious infections or spinal tumors
• Progressive neurological loss
• Conditions requiring immediate surgical intervention

Every patient undergoes a thorough consultation and evaluation to determine the safest and most appropriate care plan.
