Back Pain Treatment in Bend, OR

Almost 90% of all people will experience back pain at some point during their lives. The second most common reason for seeking medical care is back pain, behind only the common cold. Someone experiencing back pain can also have related symptoms such as:

• pain which radiates into the hips, buttocks or legs
• weakness in the legs or feet
• numbness and tingling
• weakness in the feet or legs
• a cold sensation in the feet.

Seniors will often experience balance issues when experiencing chronic back pain. The most common cause of disability in younger adults is low back pain. We find that misalignments of the vertebrae, which chiropractors call “subluxations”, in the lower back is the most common cause of back pain and sciatica. In some cases, these misalignments are observable as abnormal posture. In other cases, the misalignments can only be identified by X-rays.

Low back pain can cause an individual to have limited mobility and feel persistent tightness in the lower back, and it’s also possible for joints in the lower back to be grinding against each other, or pinching nerves in the area to cause additional pain. You should not ignore this kind of back pain, because it can become so chronic that it is more difficult to alleviate.

When you ignore the pain signals from your back, or take pills to hide the pain, more damage may be occurring. When you experience any of the symptoms described above, it’s time for you to pay a visit to the Elevation Spine Center in Bend, Oregon. Our amazing chiropractic team can identify the cause of your low back issues and help plan a program of corrective action.

When you come to our chiropractic clinic in Bend, Oregon, we will use our state-of-the-art diagnostic equipment to pinpoint the cause of your back pain. As chiropractors we don’t prescribe medications and painkillers. These only mask the symptoms for a brief period. When the medication wears off, all your back pain issues will return. It’s much better to go to the source of the problem and correct it so that you can experience long-term relief from whatever back pain issues you have.

Any other approach to treating back pain will generally only provide temporary relief at best. When you seek corrective chiropractic care, you can count on receiving long-term relief, since the underlying issue that caused the pain will be treated.

We don’t use a cookie-cutter approach to handling back pain for our patients. Understand that everyone is an individual, and the pain everyone experiences will be different. This is why we will design a unique plan of treatment tailored to relieve your back pain and restore you to pain-free living.
