Chiropractic Care for Back Pain

Your initial consultation with Dr. Mills includes a spinal evaluation to determine from where your back pain originates. Some causes of lower back pain include:

Sciatica- this is a condition in which the sciatic nerve at the base of your spine is being compressed. The pressure may be from a herniated disc, a vertebrae that is out of alignment, or muscle strain or imbalance. Dr. Mills uses gentle chiropractic adjustments to alleviate the pressure off the nerve and eliminate your lower back pain and other symptoms such as leg weakness and numbness.

Spinal abnormality- if your spine is not bending in the traditional way, you may be suffering from a spinal condition such as scoliosis. Depending on the severity and location of the spinal curve, you may feel lower back pain. Dr. Mills adjusts your spine to help it learn a healthier alignment and alleviate your discomfort.

Herniated disc- the discs rest between the vertebrae and cushion your movements. If the disc is damaged and begins to slip out of the space, you may experience pain. The body has a tremendous desire to heal and Dr. Mills adjusts your spine to reduce pressure on the discs so they can reabsorb into their space.

Muscular strain- the muscles in your lower back may also be a source of your discomfort. If the muscles are strained from lifting a heavy object, Dr. Mills shows you how to alleviate discomfort and balance your core muscles.

Poor posture- sometimes, the causes of lower back pain include years of poor posture or overuse. Dr. Mills speaks with you about your lifestyle and work habits to determine where healthier changes can be made.
