At Stevenson Chiropractic & Wellness, we provide natural, hands-on chiropractic care for patients in Hamilton and the surrounding area, with care plans tailored to your symptoms, goals, and lifestyle.
What Is Back Pain?
Back pain is not one single condition. It can involve the spine, muscles, joints, nerves, or connective tissues of the upper, mid, or lower back. The lower back is commonly affected because it supports much of the body’s weight and is involved in many daily movements.
Pain may feel dull, sharp, tight, aching, or stiff. Some people also notice discomfort that travels into the hips, buttocks, or legs, which may suggest nerve involvement and should be properly assessed.
Common Causes and Symptoms
Back pain can develop suddenly or build gradually over time. Common contributors may include:
- Poor posture during sitting or standing
- Repetitive lifting, bending, or twisting
- Age-related disc or joint changes
- Muscle tightness or weakness
- Reduced activity, previous injury, or sudden overexertion
Symptoms may include stiffness after rest, pain with certain movements, reduced flexibility, muscle tension, or discomfort when standing, walking, or sitting for long periods.
How We Care for Back Pain
Your care begins with a thorough assessment to better understand what may be contributing to your discomfort. From there, we’ll explain our findings clearly and recommend a care plan based on your needs.
Depending on your situation, care may include chiropractic adjustments to promote joint mobility, soft tissue therapy to ease muscle tension, and exercise rehabilitation to help improve strength and movement. Where appropriate, we may also incorporate spinal decompression, cold laser therapy, or massage therapy as part of your overall plan.
