Chiropractic Adjustment for Back Pain

Our chiropractor at Carey Chiropractic & Rehabilitation Center in Proctorville, OH, can help with back discomfort in many ways. Expect to be asked about your symptoms and health background at your first consultation. A thorough physical examination will follow, and we may order X-rays. Then, our chiropractor will use the results to tailor a treatment plan.

Benefits of Chiropractic Adjustments

The spine is one of the most commonly treated areas. Adjustments from a chiropractor return the spine to its normal position and alignment. This positioning is good for your health and takes away pain. When chiropractors adjust you, they massage and adjust the joints in your spine.

How Often Should I Visit?

You should get adjusted once or twice a month to help ease the pain in your lower back. Adjustments from a chiropractor help people recover from injuries like car accidents or long-term discomfort, but they also boost the immune system and reduce body pain.

Services Provided

Chiropractors can provide many types of massages. A chiropractor may massage their patients in many ways, such as Swedish and deep tissue techniques. Your lower back muscles will be less stiff and more mobile if you regularly see a chiropractor for massage.

Your chiropractor can look at where you live and what you do for a living to figure out why your back hurts. For example, if your office chair doesn't support you enough, it could stretch your lower back muscles. A chiropractor will also likely recommend particular mattresses and pillows known to improve back pain.

Holistic Care

Chiropractic care is less expensive than traditional treatments for low back pain that won't go away. In 2016, researchers looked into how chiropractic care could save money for people with chronic back pain. Compared to conventional medical care, their treatment time was less than those who received standard medical care. Many chiropractic care regimens used to treat back pain include the following:

• Manual therapies
• Lifestyle and nutritional counseling
• Spinal manipulation and adjustment
• Rehabilitative exercise
