Low Back Pain: Understanding the Root Cause
Low back pain affects approximately 80% of Americans at some point in their lives, making it one of the leading causes of disability worldwide. The lumbar spine bears the weight of your entire upper body while simultaneously allowing complex movements — making it prone to strain, disc injury, and nerve compression.
Common Causes
- •Herniated or bulging disc pressing on nerve roots
- •Muscle and ligament strains from lifting or sudden movements
- •Spinal stenosis — narrowing of the spinal canal
- •Degenerative disc disease from normal aging
- •Sacroiliac joint dysfunction
- •Poor posture and prolonged sitting
- •Sports or work-related injuries
How Chiropractic Helps
Chiropractic care corrects spinal misalignments (subluxations) that cause nerve irritation and muscle tension. Precise adjustments restore normal joint motion, reduce nerve pressure, and allow your body's natural healing processes to eliminate low back pain at its structural source.
- Drug-free and non-invasive
- Most patients improve in 5–7 visits
