Midlothian Chiropractic Care Helps Relieve Back Pain Safely

By Lilia Slaybaugh


Many Midlothian residents suffer from chronic back pain. They can feel it anywhere in the back, but the most commonly affected area is the lower back because it supports most of the weight of the body. You may feel back pain after lifting a heavy object, moving suddenly, after an accident or after sitting in one position for extended periods. You can relieve backache safely by consulting with a Midlothian chiropractor.

Doctors of chiropractic believe that the overall health and well being of an individual is influenced by spinal alignment. These professionals incorporate this belief into chiropractic therapy and pay special attention to the spine. Chiropractors use chiropractic manipulation to relive back pain. They can perform chiropractic adjustment when a patient is standing, lying down, sitting on in combination.

Chiropractic therapy usually focuses on spinal manipulation and alignment to stimulate the self healing abilities of the body and aid pain management. Low force spinal alignment helps reduce pressure in the central nervous system. It aims to realign the vertebrae, which have become skewed due to poor posture, trauma or obesity. A manual adjustment can return the vertebrae into the original aligned position and eliminate excessive pressure on soft tissues and nerves.

After patients visit a chiropractor, the professional asks them to describe their symptoms. The professional may also perform an exam that involves watching how the patient moves or stands, or feeling the head, pelvis and spine. After this, the chiropractor develops the most suitable care plan.

It may be necessary to visit a chiropractor many times, over a long period in order to cope with pain. During every visit, the professional may apply forceful pressure on certain areas of your back or other parts of your body in order to realign the spine. He or she may use specially designed instruments or hands to deliver the pressure.

Chiropractic adjustments can eliminate various kinds of back pain safely. Examples include the pain that is associated with facet joint dysfunction and disc problems. Chiropractic adjustments increase function, and reduce pain and nerve irritability.
