Low back pain is the single leading cause of disability worldwide. It affects 31 million people at any given time and 80% of the population will experience low back pain at some point in their life.
The back is a complicated structure of bones, joints, ligaments, and muscles. You can sprain ligaments, strain muscles, rupture discs, and irritate joints, all of which can lead to back pain. For example, picking up a pencil off of the floow can have painful results. In addition, arthritis, poor posture, obesity, and psychological stress can cause or complicate back pain.
The chiropractic manipulation (adjustment) is a safe and effective spine pain treatment. It reduces pain, increases range of motion, decreases reliance on medication, and rapidly advances physical therapy.
