Lower Back Pain
Dull, sharp, throbbing, excruciating, and ache. All these words can be used to describe lower back pain, one of the common conditions that adults experience. At Mindarie Chiropractic Centre, our chiropractors are highly skilled in providing natural care that can address lumbar discomfort.
What Causes it:
There are many sources of pain in the lumbar region, including
-
Trauma
-
A sports injury
-
Lifting something wrong
-
Sitting with poor posture
-
An auto accident
A joint restriction could also be at fault, causing spasms and inflammation in the area. Other issues like disc herniation, disease or arthritis can put pressure on the lower back.
​
Finding the Root Cause
​
While ice packs and over-the-counter medications can alleviate lower back pain for a short time, these conventional approaches don’t address the root cause, and the problem may continue to come back and even worsen. That’s why we recommend our natural approach (a link to about us).
What to Expect
We have a thorough consultation process including detailed history, and a complete physical examination, to help identify any contributing factors to ensure we get to the root of your low back discomfort. Once we determine the source of your pain, we can design a care plan to help get you relief and back to your life. Our Chiropractors (link to meet the chiropractors page) use various adjusting techniques and can tailor care to meet your specific needs.
The Power of Prevention
We believe prevention is more effective than a cure. That’s why we educate patients on how to avoid issues in the future. Here are three tips to help prevent low back pain:
-
Be mindful of standing evenly on both feet
-
Be mindful of sitting evenly on both sitting bones
-
Ensure that you get up and move every 25 min
