Have you been looking for something natural that can help heal you of your back pain? Many people who experience low back pain also experience relationship problems and some lose their job as well.

Symptoms of Low Back Pain

Low back pain may be shooting or sharp pain, dull pain, constant pain or pain that only shows up with certain types of movement. If low back pain has continued for more than three months, it’s called chronic back pain. Low back pain that lasts less than three months is called acute back pain.

This type of pain may be from:

  • previous back surgery
  • serious back conditions
  • arthritis
  • bad posture
  • short leg syndrome
  • neurological disorders
  • diseases that affect the back
  • lack of activity
  • trauma to the back
  • disk herniation
  • stenosis
  • work injury or car accident

How Long Does Low Back Pain Last?

Just because you have low back pain doesn’t mean that you have to have it for many years or the rest of your life. Your chiropractor in Houston, Dr. Viri is well trained to use non-surgical, non-invasive techniques that reduce pain naturally. This means that in your first week or two of treatment, you could experience pain reduction.

Strategies Your Houston Chiropractor Uses for Treating Low Back Pain

Some of the methods that Dr. Viri uses include:

  • chiropractic manipulation of the knee, low back, hip and pelvis
  • physical therapy
  • applied kinesiology
  • trigger point therapy
  • ultrasound therapy
  • electrostimulation therapy
  • flexion distraction therapy
  • muscle imbalance adjustments
  • cold therapy
  • heat therapy
  • nutritional supplements
  • diet changes
  • rehabilitation exercises

Scientific Studies Prove That Chiropractic Works

Study after study on chiropractic methods prove that low back pain doesn’t have to be something you live with forever. Different methods of chiropractic spinal adjustment also proved they all were more effective than standard medical treatment with painkillers and conservative care.
Similarly, the medical literature is filled with reports of higher efficacy of chiropractic adjustments and chiropractic treatment for low back pain than for medical treatment.
Other studies have even shown that those who received no benefits from medical care for their low back pain for several months started improving quickly after chiropractic care was started.
And this all makes sense because when your Houston chiropractor adjusts your spine in the low back area, she is helping the nerve impulses get to the organs and tissues that they are supposed to get to. It’s nerve flow that starts healing.
