Common Questions About Back Pain Relief

One of the most serious issues everyone experiences at some point in their lives is back pain. At Centennial Wellness Center, our professional staff can diagnose the root cause of your back pain and create a personalized treatment plan to naturally alleviate your pain and prevent it from reoccurring. If you live in Las Vegas, our chiropractor is ready to help. Here are answers to some common questions about back pain and how chiropractic care can help.

What Causes Back Pain?

Several conditions may cause back pain. They include:

• Acute injuries, including physical trauma
• Chronic health conditions
• Heavy lifting
• Repetitive strain
• Spinal irregularities
• Damaged discs
• Improper posture

Why Should I Consider a Chiropractic Approach?

Chiropractic care addresses all parts of the body, not just the affected area. Our chiropractor will alleviate your pain and will also ensure your body is functioning properly for long-term results.

How Can a Chiropractor Help?

Back pain relief comes in many forms. We will diagnose the cause of your back pain and recommend the appropriate therapies and techniques for your treatment plan. Chiropractic adjustments are one option. These adjustments restore your range of motion and reduce nerve pain by realigning the musculoskeletal system. Manipulation may use gentle thrusting to push the body into proper alignment.

Heat therapy and cold therapy may both support other back pain remedies. For example, chiropractors may use cold to numb the pain, whereas heating can restore blood flow and improve the speed at which back injuries heal. Many people see results from using corrective exercises and stretches as part of their treatment plans. When you strengthen your back and other parts of your body, your back has to do much less heavy lifting. You can correct muscular imbalances that cause your back to carry more of your weight. You may also benefit from massage therapy, ultrasound therapy, electrical muscle stimulation, and other options during your chiropractic care sessions.
