Back Pain Relief in St Albans
Back pain is a common issue, but it doesn’t have to take over your life. Many people experience some form of back discomfort every year, due to activities like lifting too heavy a weight, sports injuries, or even sitting in the wrong position for too long.
If you are experiencing any form of back pain, it’s important to consult with our doctor as soon as possible. With the right care and support, you can find relief from your discomfort.
How We May Help
Chiropractic adjustments have been shown to help with musculoskeletal issues in the back, reducing the amount of pain experienced. We manipulate the spine by using gentle stretching and pressure techniques to realign the vertebrae. This helps improve posture, flexibility, and mobility, while also reducing inflammation and tension on the muscles and joints. Our doctor also prescribes at-home exercises as part of your plan.
In addition to adjustments, we have other therapies available for back discomfort, including spinal decompression. This therapy involves the use of a special computerised traction table that uses an intermittent pull and release motion to gently increase the intervertebral spacing. This allows the disc to move back into place and receive necessary hydration and nutrition. Most patients feel some relief after just one session.
Education Is Key
When a new patient comes in, we spend some time educating them on how chiropractic might help them. We talk about breaking the bad habits that brought them to see us. We also discuss ergonomic issues that might affect their posture, especially those who work at home. Our doctor will offer suggestions on the proper work setup, and using computers and other electronics properly.
