Chiropractic Adjustments for Back Pain

Many of us have suffered from back pain in our lives. Repetitive motions, heavy lifting, car accidents and sports injuries can all cause pain. Medications may relieve pain temporarily, but they don’t fix the cause of the pain. Many people turn to chiropractic care to restore mobility and alleviate this pain. Dr. Steven Lint of Bruceton Wellness Center utilizes many services to help his patients’ find relief from back pain.

Dr. Steven Lint will use specific chiropractic adjustments to realign the spine and improve range of motion. This involves using force applied to the spine to put it and surrounding nerves and muscles back into place. Proper alignment allows the body to heal itself without medications or surgery. On your first visit, Dr. Steven Lint will perform an examination and ask questions about the level of pain you are experiencing. From there, the doctor will develop an individualized treatment plan. It’s important to know that back pain is different for everyone. It can be caused by various factors and must be treated in a way that will eliminate the cause. It’s important to inform your chiropractor about your medical history, including any conditions you have and any medications you are currently taking.

Alleviating Back Pain with Chiropractic Care

Back pain is something that many people suffer from in their life. It can stem from a vigorous workout, lifting something heavy, or as a result of sleeping in a wrong position. When the pain in your back is due to a strained muscle, it will usually heal on its own in a couple of days with rest. However, if your pain lingers or if it is a result of a spinal disc injury, the condition may be more troublesome. Spinal disc injuries are quite common and can be really painful. They can become thin or herniated due to things, like arthritis and other degenerative diseases and affect your overall spinal health. If this is the case, it means that it’s time to visit Bruceton Wellness Center.
Finding the exact source of your back pain can be difficult and symptoms include:
·         Cramping
·         Muscle spasm
·         Buttock pain
·         Stiffness
·         Back pain
·         Spine sensitivity to pressure and touch
·         Prolonged inactivity causes pain
·         Pain lasts longer and gets worse
Depending on the cause and severity of your back pain, Dr. Steven Lint at Bruceton Wellness Center may recommend a spinal adjustment and spinal manipulation of your vertebrae to alleviate your symptoms. An adjustment refers to Dr. Steven Lint  applying manipulation with their hands to vertebrae that have abnormal movement patterns or fail to function normally. The objective of this treatment is to reduce the subluxation with the goals of increasing range of motion, reducing nerve irritability and improving overall function. As a result, this enables you to get back to living your life without having to rely on painkillers.
