When and Why Should You Visit a Chiropractor for Low Back Pain?
Chiropractors undergo extensive education and training in diagnosing and treating aches, pains, misalignments, spinal conditions, and joint stiffness or loss of mobility. If you’re on the fence about making an appointment with our chiropractor for low back pain treatment in Yuma, read on to learn more about when and why you should.
Signs You Should Visit a Chiropractor for Low Back Pain
If your low back pain is affecting your daily life and preventing you from working, eating, sleeping, exercising, and spending time with family and friends, it’s time for chiropractic intervention. You should also visit our chiropractor if your back pain is new, came on suddenly, has gotten worse, or is chronic or recurring. If your low back pain is accompanied by other symptoms like loss of balance, muscle weakness, trouble walking, numbness or tingling, or pain that radiates from your lower back down one leg, you should visit a chiropractor for evaluation right away.
Benefits of Chiropractic Treatment for Low Back Pain
Chiropractors are dedicated to finding the root cause of your pain and treating that, rather than throwing a bunch of treatment options at your symptoms and hoping one works. Our chiropractor will try to find the least invasive, yet most effective low back pain treatment option, rather than immediately recommending dangerous procedures like surgery, or suggesting prescription painkillers. He will also help you with exercise, lifestyle, and workplace modifications that will eliminate back pain, inflammation, and stiffness and reduce your risk of your low back pain recurring.
How Our Chiropractor Treats Low Back Pain
Our chiropractor may use different chiropractic treatment methods depending on the root cause of your low back pain. If your back pain is associated with sciatica, a herniated disc, or age-related disc degeneration, he may suggest spinal decompression therapy. If your low back pain is due to poor posture or work-related injury, he may suggest chiropractic adjustments combined with posture correction, therapeutic exercises and stretches, and workplace ergonomics. If you have low back pain after a sports injury or workplace injury, he may recommend chiropractic care, laser therapy, trigger point therapy, and physical rehabilitation.
