Back pain is a warning sign. Like the piercing sound from a smoke alarm, the alarm isn’t the problem. The alarm has a cause, just like every ache or pain has a cause.
Since we help back pain patients every day, we have insights into its cause and more importantly, its correction.
Common Sources of Back Pain
The nerve-rich facet joints on the backside of each spinal bone are a common cause of back pain. If these pairs of interlocking “fingers” aren’t moving right, they can cause painful symptoms.
The discs between spinal bones can be a source of back pain, too. These rings of fibrous tissues act as spacers, connectors, and “shock absorbers” for the spine. Trauma can cause the soft, pulpy material in the middle to bulge or herniate, putting pressure on delicate nearby nerves.
Precisely Targeted Chiropractic Care
When patients enter our practice, they believe that the cause of their pain is in the area where they feel it.
But often, that’s not the case!
The pain may be originating in the lower back, but the real issue is in the neck. Or the pain may be located between the shoulder blades, but the real issue is in the hips and sacrum.
These are called “compensation reactions.”
“When we do our chiropractic assessment, we examine the entire spine as a complete, integrated structure,” observes Dr. Le. “It’s this level of detail that helps us precisely target our care and produce the best results in the shortest amount of time.”
