BACK PAIN AND SPASM  

Low back pain is the most common reason for missed work days second only to the common cold. Back pain can range from mild to a severe disabling pain. The causes range from dysfunction of the vertebrae from misalignment to lack of flexibility or stiffness of the tissues and joints. Other causes can be from swelling of the disc and soft tissues around the vertebrae. Unknown to most people lifestyle and work habits lead to most of the low back and back pain problems. This is main reason low back pain can be so difficult to treat; by the time symptoms are noticed there may be years of dysfunction and abuse that has damaged the spine and surrounding structures. The earlier the problem is detected and treated the better the outcome.
The good news is Chiropractic is very effective at treating low back pain, treatment may consist of Chiropractic adjustments with exercise and life style changes, we may incorporate physical therapy or acupuncture if needed, or in worse case scenarios refer the patient for surgical intervention then return and rehabilitate.
The most important issue is not put off treatment any longer than necessary. The sooner problems are detected and corrected the better your odds of complete recovery.
