is “mechanical” back pain. The vertebrae in the spine can be misaligned causing mechanical irritation on sensitive nerve and joint tissues causing the pain. Over time, chronic mechanical back pain can also result in damage to the discs in the spine causing degeneration. Restoring healthy spinal mechanics not only provides relief from pain but can stop the degenerative process as well. Whatever the cause, to manage the chronic pain you can’t just cover up the pain with pills. You will need to find the root of the problem and work on healing the cause of the pain in order to heal and ultimately get you pain free. It is certainly no fun living with chronic back pain which is why you need to find a treatment method that will result in proper chronic back pain management. Your chiropractor will know the best treatment for chronic back pain and the natural ways to treat the pain and restore normal function before resorting to more drastic treatment such as surgery. In addition to correcting vertebral misalignment with a specialty treatment called “spinal adjustments” your chiropractor may also supplement your care with rehabilitative exercises to strengthen muscle and laser therapy to accelerate the healing process. There are many effective and proven methods to help the healing process and get you out of chronic pain and onto….living a normal life as soon as possible.
