Back Pain Treatment

Back pain is a common ailment that can become debilitating. Some individuals experience it in one section of the back, while others exhibit completely different types and intensities. Stabbing pain, numbness, tingling, dull, incessant aching, and nearly crippling stiffness are a few symptoms of back pain. Chiropractic care can help alleviate this pain. At Main Street Chiropractic in Hilton Head Island, SC, we provide a wide variety of natural treatment methods for back pain and other ailments. We also serve Bluffton, SC and Savannah and Pooler, GA. Our chiropractor is dedicated to helping patients live pain-free lives.

Back Pain Treatment

Diagnosing Back Pain

Back pain can be caused by a wide range of factors. This includes sports injuries, auto accident injuries, and personal injuries. Back pain can come from underlying conditions, like sciatica, herniated discs, and scoliosis. Posture and everyday activities can also lead to back pain.

When you first visit our facility, our chiropractor will listen carefully as you describe your back pain. We will conduct a comprehensive physical examination to look for the root cause of your pain. We also look for any underlying conditions. Our goal is to treat your condition, not just your symptoms. Our chiropractor will test your muscle strength and tone, range of motion, and nerve sensitivity.

After a diagnosis, our chiropractor will create a personalized treatment plan for you. We will explain all treatment methods and answer any questions you have. We can tell you how long or how many sessions it will take to achieve the goal for your optimal health. 

Treating Back Pain

Our chiropractic care methods are non-invasive and drug-free. This allows you to avoid risky surgeries and pain medications, which often come with side effects and can become addicting. Our methods also provide more long-lasting results.

Depending on your treatment plan, our chiropractor may use one or a combination of methods to treat back pain. Some of these include:

  • Spinal manipulation: This is a manual process that involves moving and putting gentle pressure on joints for the purpose of realigning the spine and the muscles that surround it. This will reduce inflammation, reduce pressure on the joints, and improve nerve functioning.
  • Corrective exercises: Stretching and strengthening exercises are an important part of rehabilitation. They will improve your range of motion and strengthen your back to avoid future injuries and pain. They can also work to improve your posture. Our chiropractor will show you exercises that you can do at home to speed up your healing process.
  • Electric muscle stimulation: This method is great for soft tissue injuries. It is a type of therapy that involves placing electrodes on the skin of specific parts of the body for the purpose of reducing inflammation, relieving pain, treating atrophied muscles, and calming muscle spasms. 

In addition to these methods, our chiropractor also offers physiotherapy, functional medicine, massages, and back braces. We also provide lifestyle advice, where we help improve your habits and posture so you can avoid reoccurring pain.
