Back Pain Specialist
Living with back pain can make it difficult to stay active. You may find it increasingly harder to be mobile, participate in sports, or even perform daily tasks. Severe back pain may even make it a struggle to sleep well or enjoy yourself.
Through combining holistic therapies a deeper healing can take place. Conventional methods may just treat symptoms, but with chiropractic adjustments, acupuncture, physical therapy (Physiotherapy) and therapeutic massage your back pain can finally experience lasting relief. These methods work to take the stress off of nerves, restore muscular balance and reduce pain-causing tension throughout the body.
What To Expect During Your Visit
You will begin with an initial examination where you work with your chiropractor, acupuncturist, or physiotherapist in identifying the underlying factors that are contributing to your back pain and when it began. Once the origins of the problem is understood they will begin to create a treatment plan to find a lasting solution.
You may begin treatment with chiropractic adjustments to take pressure off the spinal column and any compressed nerves. This can greatly reduce back pain right away. Acupuncture may also be a vital part of your treatment. It can access areas of acute pain and dissolve the accumulated tension there.
You may also want to have a therapeutic massage to encourage the effectiveness of the acupuncture and chiropractic treatments. Therapeutic massage can further relax tense groups of muscles that have been pulling your body out of alignment. Leaving these additional areas without treatment can lead to a gradual reoccurrence of a compressed muscle.
Functional movement re-training or occupational therapy can also provide necessary education on ways to reduce the likelihood of a future injury and speed up the rate of healing. An occupational therapist can teach you new ways to move your body that won’t put unnecessary strain on your back and will begin to teach your muscles to move in more balanced and stable ways.
What Back Pain Management Can Treat
Back pain is a result of a number of different conditions, illnesses, and problems. You may experience back pain from a pulled muscle, a sprain, a pinched nerve, overuse, sciatica, degenerative disc disease or from poor posture. Back pain management can help you with many of those problems by relieving pain, managing symptoms, and reducing the likelihood of a reoccurring injury.
