Low Back Pain Treatment with Chiropractic

Chronic lower back pain can make it hard to work, sleep, exercise, and take part in your favorite hobbies and activities. If you’re looking for relief from lower back pain, but don’t want to use prescription medication or invasive procedures, one of our chiropractors can help. Our chiropractors can diagnose the underlying cause of your low back pain, and provide safe, non-invasive low back pain treatment in Rochester. 

Spinal Adjustments

Low back pain is often caused by a spinal misalignment. A spinal misalignment can be the result of age-related degeneration, accident, injury, poor posture, or genetics. Using safe, gentle, and non-invasive spinal adjustments, one of our chiropractors can realign your spine. During a spinal adjustment, one of our chiropractors will use their hands or a small instrument to manually adjust and realign your spine by applying pressure to the spine, joints, and muscles. This takes pressure off your nerves and joints, reduces pain and inflammation, and improves mobility. 

Massage Therapy and Reiki

If the cause of your low back pain is tight muscles, repetitive stress, or muscle spasms, our chiropractors may recommend massage therapy and/or Reiki. Massage therapy stimulates the body’s release of endorphins, which are a natural pain-reliever. It also eases tension and stiffness and improves circulation and mobility. Reiki is an ancient alternative medicine treatment in which a licensed Reiki practitioner lays his or her hands on or just above strategic target areas of your body. The goal is to manipulate energy and stimulate the body’s natural healing processes to relieve pain, tension, and stress.

Spinal Decompression Therapy

If your low back pain is caused by age-related disc degeneration, a herniated disc, or a bone spur, then our chiropractors might suggest spinal decompression therapy. During spinal decompression, you lie fully clothed on a special motorized table. One of our chiropractors controls the movement and traction of the table using specific calculations in a computer. As the table moves, it gently stretches your spine, improving your alignment, relieving pressure and tension, and improving circulation.
