Common Causes of Back Pain

Back pain may be related to:

• Muscle strain or overuse
• Poor posture and prolonged sitting
• Spinal joint restriction
• Herniated or bulging discs
• Sports or work-related injuries
• Sciatica and nerve irritation
• Repetitive movements and poor body mechanics

Common Symptoms

Symptoms may include lower, middle, or upper back pain; stiffness; muscle tension; reduced mobility; or pain that travels into the hip or leg.

How Chiropractic Care May Help

Your evaluation may include static and dynamic palpation, range of motion, orthopedic, and neurological testing. Depending on your needs, care may include chiropractic adjustments, spinal decompression, soft-tissue therapy, corrective exercises, and ergonomic guidance.

The goal is to reduce irritation, improve spinal and joint movement, and help you return to normal activities comfortably.

When to Seek Medical Care

Seek prompt medical attention if back pain is severe, follows a serious injury, or is accompanied by significant weakness, loss of bladder or bowel control, or numbness in the groin area.  For general back pain information, visit MedlinePlus Back Pain.
