Back pain can make it difficult or even impossible to work and complete everyday tasks. At Main Street Chiropractic in Rowlett, TX, we provide chiropractic adjustments, massage therapy, and other techniques to alleviate your discomfort. Before you schedule your appointment, take a look at some frequently asked questions about back pain below:
What Are the Most Common Causes of Back Pain?
Back pain can occur due to a variety of factors, such as poor posture, work injuries, herniate discs, arthritis, and sciatica. Poor posture, such as hunching over your mobile device or computer, can cause discomfort. It’s important to identify the root cause of the pain for effective treatment.
What Are the Symptoms of Back Pain?
We often recommend regular chiropractic care for individuals with chronic back pain. Signs of worsening back pain include:
- Pain that increases when walking, sitting or bending
- Stiffness and soreness when you wake up
- Pain that radiates to the hips, legs, and buttocks
- Limited range of motion
- Numbness and tingling
What Treatments Are Available for Back Pain?
At our practice, we offer a range of treatments for back pain. We often begin with chiropractic adjustments to correct spinal misalignments and provide relief. These adjustments may be complemented by massage therapy, which helps reduce inflammation, alleviate muscle tension, and accelerate the healing process. Additionally, we can teach you specific exercises designed to strengthen your back muscles and improve your range of motion.
Does Massage Therapy (ART) Help with Back Pain?
Our chiropractor, Dr. Hadsell, is ART certified and utilizes this specialized technique to treat overuse injuries. Whether you work in a factory or participate in sports, repetitive motions can strain your muscles and joints. ART effectively releases knots and tension in the muscles that support your spine, helping to prevent reinjury in the affected area.
How Can Lifestyle Changes Impact My Back Pain?
Lifestyle changes, such as maintaining a healthy weight, improving posture, and staying active, can significantly impact your back pain. Dr. Hadsell can provide guidance on lifestyle modifications to support your recovery.
