Understanding Low Back Pain

Back pain can interfere with your ability to work, exercise, sleep, or simply enjoy life. The good news? Chiropractic care offers a safe, effective path to lasting relief.

If you’re living with low back pain, you’re not alone. Millions of people experience this kind of discomfort—whether it’s a dull ache that won’t go away or a sharp, shooting pain that stops you in your tracks. It can interfere with your ability to work, exercise, sleep, or simply enjoy life. The good news? Chiropractic care offers a safe, effective path to lasting relief.

Common Causes of Low Back Pain

Low back pain can stem from a variety of sources, including:

  • Muscle strain from lifting, twisting, or overuse
  • Herniated or bulging discs that press on spinal nerves
  • Degenerative disc disease from wear and tear over time
  • Facet joint dysfunction that limits spinal mobility
  • Sciatica, often causing pain that travels down the leg
  • Prolonged sitting, poor posture, or weak core muscles
  • Injuries from sports, work, or accidents

How Chiropractic Can Help You Heal

Our approach goes beyond temporary fixes. We focus on the cause of your pain and work with your body’s natural healing abilities. Chiropractic care may include:

  • Gentle spinal adjustments to restore proper alignment and reduce nerve pressure
  • Soft tissue therapy to release muscle tension and improve circulation
  • Targeted rehab exercises to build core stability and prevent future flare-ups
  • Postural coaching and ergonomic advice to reduce daily strain

Your Journey to Relief

Your first visit begins with a detailed health history, posture and movement assessments, and if necessary, digital imaging. From there, we design a personalised treatment plan tailored to your needs, lifestyle, and goals.
