Can chiropractor help with back pain?

There are a multitude of reasons why people get back pain. It can be from spinal disc injuries, muscle strain, organ referral pain (example would be period pain or digestive pain leading to back pain), ligaments strain, spinal joints that are stuck and fixated.


Step one: work out what’s wrong


Chiropractors study for over 5 years attaining a master degree and they spend more time my Physiotherapist on hands hand manual skills classes. There are taught various techniques but the most common and popular technique would be manual adjustments (Yes, it’s when you can hear a ‘crack’ your spine. Nothing cracks though, it’s only gas releasing but it does make a popping sound) so find someone who know what they are doing and safe safely diagnose and adjust you.


Second Step: Find a competent Chiropractor


If you get confused, lost and don’t know who to see just give me a call and I can give you some advice and help you work out what’s best. You might just need some advice on posture and light stretches, you might need a massage therapist…. Call and have a chat.
