How We Treat Back Pain
Chiropractic adjustments to restore spinal alignment
Hands-on spinal adjustments correct misalignment, relieve pressure on nerves, and restore normal spinal movement. This is often the foundation of care for general back pain and stiffness.
Manual flexion-distraction / spinal decompression for disc-related pain
A gentle, non-surgical technique that stretches and decompresses the spine, relieving pressure on herniated or bulging discs. This approach is especially effective for disc-related pain and sciatica and doesn't require invasive procedures.
Shockwave therapy for chronic or stubborn pain
Focused sound wave pulses that stimulate blood flow and healing in areas of chronic pain or muscle tension. This is often used for stubborn cases that haven't responded well to adjustments alone.
Laser and red light therapy to reduce inflammation
Low-level light therapy reduces inflammation, eases pain, and supports faster tissue healing. It's commonly used alongside adjustments to speed up recovery and reduce soreness between visits.
A care plan built around your diagnosis
Every patient's back pain has a different cause, so treatment is not one-size-fits-all. After your exam, we build a plan around your diagnosis and combine the therapies above in the order and frequency your condition needs. We accept most major insurance plans, and neck pain is treated with a similar approach.
