Live Free of Back Pain with Chiropractic Care

Living with back pain can make basic everyday tasks far more difficult. People often think the solution to this is surgery, medication, or just ignoring it. However, chiropractic care is a non-invasive treatment option to relieve back pain and help people live without discomfort. Here at Preferred Chiropractic in Palm Beach Gardens, our team is committed to helping you eliminate your back pain so that you can live comfortably.

Causes of Back Pain

There are several reasons that you may be experiencing back pain. Here are some of the common reasons for back pain:

• Auto accident - Car accidents can severely injure your spine, including herniated and bulging discs. A sudden impact can push the discs out of alignment and cause a rupture of the disc. This leads to the gel inside the disc to leak out and cause nerve pain. Your back is the center where nerves, muscles, and ligaments come together and can easily be injured in a car accident leading to severe pain and limited motion. Sudden jerking movements and impact can cause fractures in the spine and the facet joints. We offer help for whiplash and are trained in whiplash traumatology.
• Sciatica - Sciatica occurs when the sciatic nerve is pinched or irritated. This causes shooting pains from the buttocks down the leg. A spinal misalignment can lead to sciatica. This happens when the structures in the hip and lower back compress the sciatic nerve leading to irritation and inflammation. Chiropractic adjustments work to properly realign the spine, thereby removing pressure from the sciatic nerve. In some cases, sciatica is caused by a herniated or slipped disk or narrowing of the spinal canal. Typically, sciatica symptoms will only impact one side of the body.
• Poor posture - With more people working from home, neck and back pain cases are quickly rising. Most people ignore their posture in the comfort of their own space. The act of looking down at a smartphone also puts pressure on the neck vertebra and surrounding soft tissues. Our team will work with you to correct your posture and alleviate whatever back pain you are experiencing from a personal injury.
