BACK PAIN
Back Pain can be caused by a strain/sprain of the muscles and ligaments of the spine, poor posture, arthritis, herniated or bulging discs, trigger point spasm, and spinal subluxation patterns. Chiropractic care has been proven effective in treating the many causes of mechanical back pain.
Eighty percent of Americans experience one form of back pain or another during the course of their lives. More men over the age of 45 are disabled by back pain than any other condition.
It is the third most common reason for surgeries. Because of this, people complaining of back pain cannot be easily diagnosed. This is because the spine is such an incredibly complex structure of bones, muscles, nerves, joints, tendons, and ligaments. Injury or disease affecting any one or more of these structures can often trigger an episode of pain.
