Chiropractors and Back Pain

Chiropractors throughout central Florida treat back pain using a number of modalities. The first step is to figure out what is going on in order to develop a treatment plan. Your chiropractor may suggest core strengthening exercises to reduce strain on your back, adjust your spine, provide massage, and use ultrasound to improve the function of your spine. You may find that your back feels much better after one treatment, and you can move with less pain. When your pain is in control, your overall health improves.

Back Pain Treatment Over Time

Treatment for back pain is progressive and requires several adjustments a week in the early stages. You may find immediate relief, but this is usually short-lived until your body heals from whatever is causing your pain. Over time, you will begin to feel better for longer periods of time in between appointments. As you heal, you will be able to see your chiropractor less often. Your frequency of appointments will depend on how you respond to treatment and what works for you.

Core Strength and Back Pain

If you have frequent back pain, particularly in your low back, your core strength may be weak. Chiropractors can show you core strengthening exercises that can help keep your spine in proper alignment. When your core is strong, you are better able to move about without causing stress to various parts of your body. Focus on your core strength exercises in between sessions with your chiropractor and you will see a decrease in your symptoms.
