Rehabilitative Chiropractic Care After a Back Injury

Written By Heuser Chiropractic on July 10, 2023

Back Injury

A back injury can affect your ability to work, exercise, sleep, and enjoy your hobbies and leisure activities. Visiting our chiropractor in Yuma, AZ for pain management, physical therapy, post-surgery care, and rehabilitation will prevent complications and help you get back on your feet faster. 

Pain Management

Our chiropractor can offer pain management techniques that don’t rely on dangerous prescription pain medications. By combining different chiropractic therapies that have proven effective in reducing pain and inflammation, he can help you restore function and get back to enjoying your regular daily activities, pain-free. 

Lifestyle Modification

If your back injury and back pain prevent you from working, exercising, sleeping, or living a normal life, our chiropractor may recommend lifestyle modification counseling. He might suggest that you improve your strength, balance, mobility, and overall health by making key changes to your lifestyle. This could include getting daily exercise, even if it’s just a 20-minute walk outside each day. It might also include changing your diet, taking nutritional supplements, drinking more water, avoiding alcohol, quitting smoking, trying stress management techniques, getting more sleep, drinking more water, and improving your posture. 

Workplace Ergonomics

Your work environment might contribute to or exacerbate back pain. Our chiropractor can provide education and instruction in ergonomics. Workplace ergonomics is the study and application of workflow design, workstations, and workplace equipment that makes it easier to do a job without suffering from workplace injuries. 

Improved Mobility

Chiropractic back injury rehabilitation and physical therapy can restore your range of motion and improve flexibility. This will help you get up and on your feet faster, and make it easier to complete everyday activities. Chiropractic adjustments, spinal decompression therapy, soft tissue therapy, scar tissue management, and physical therapy can all help with spinal alignment, joint mobilization, nerve regeneration, and musculoskeletal healing. 

Healing & Injury Prevention 

Finally, rehabilitative back injury treatment and post-surgery care can promote faster healing so that you can return to your regular life sooner. You can also prevent future injury or reinjury by strengthening the muscles, tendons, and ligaments that support your spine and movement.
