Back Pain 

Back pain comes in many different forms, with many different causes.
Dealing with back pain is something we do often here at The Healthy Joint! To find out why you’re in pain, we will look at the biomechanical causes (how your body moves), and the best approach to correct the problem. Some of the chiropractic treatments will make noises, others won’t. There will some massage, some stretching and lots of advice of things you can do it home it help yourself get better (and yes that may include some exercises!)

How we help

Low back pain is such a common everyday experience for some people that they often dismiss that persistent dull back ache as just normal life. We know that sometimes these aches never develop into anything more, and sometimes they develop into more serious problems that can take months to heal. 
As part of your initial visit with us, we discuss your history of back pain, the cause of your back pain and we go through testing to really narrow down the exact source of your problem.

Once we can highlight the source of your pain, we discuss with your treatment options and the road to recovery. Sometimes things heal quickly, other times things take a long time. Every problem is as unique as every spine. We design a treatment plan to suit the source of your pain.
The aim of our care initially is to reduce your pain, inflammation (the bodies natural response to a problem) and improve your spinal movement. As your recovery progresses, we look into an exercise program to help facilitate your healing. Sometimes we get you doing things immediately like stretching and walking. Other times we may wait until your pain has subsided before we look at other things like spinal or core stablisation exercises. 
We know healing can take time, that is why we are here to support you through the process and get you healthy again and back into the life you love.
