Back Pain Relief in Painesville
Can Chiropractic Help With My Back Pain?
It is estimated that 80% of adults experience back pain at one point in their lives. Worldwide, low back pain is the leading cause of disability and one of the main reasons why employees miss work. Pain, acute or chronic, is your body’s way of communicating that something is not right. It is not a symptom to be ignored!
Your spine is an intricate structure made up of bones, joints, and discs (24 to be exact!). These bones and joints have to line up and move in a very specific way for your body to function the way it should—pain free. Ligaments and muscles also connect and support the spine, allowing extremities to move and the body to function freely.

How Chiropractic Care Offers Lasting Relief
Medication may provide temporary relief of the pain and give you a sense of well-being. However, medication is only treating the symptoms and not addressing the root cause of the back pain. They essentially “mask” the problem, but don’t fix it. Medications not only are a temporary fix but also bring a host of side effects, affecting other parts of your body not initially a problem. The root issue is still present and is not a cure.
Chiropractic care is one of the most natural, safest, and effective ways of treating low back pain and associated symptoms. In fact, surgeons and orthopedics refer patients to chiropractors as the first defense against pain and spinal issues.
Chiropractors are concerned with finding and correcting the underlying root cause of your health problems. They provide correction and treatment of the issue, not just management of the symptoms. Many people have used chiropractic care for permanent relief from their back pain.
