Back Pain Remedies

When struggling with chronic back pain, most people are desperate to find relief so that they can resume their daily activities. People often opt for pain-relievers to help with their back injuries. However, this can only treat symptoms instead of alleviating the source of the pain. That’s why our team at Skocik Chiropractic in Harrisburg is here to help patients find natural relief, restored mobility, and improved body function after suffering from back pain. Here are some of the options available to our patients with back pain.

Spinal Manipulation

Our chiropractor will initially conduct a full medical evaluation, including X-rays, to better understand your condition and determine the best course of treatment. The most common treatment method is spinal manipulation, which is also referred to as spinal realignment or adjustment. This involves the use of pressure on specific areas of the spine to relieve pain and activate the body’s natural healing process. Our chiropractor often combines spinal manipulation with additional treatment methods, including spinal screenings, therapeutic exercises, and muscular stimulation to alleviate back pain.

Massage Therapy

Another alternative remedy for back pain is massage therapy. Several different types of massages can be used, including deep tissue, soft tissue, and sports massage, depending upon the specific nature of your condition. Massage is an effective and easy way to relieve back pain.

Nutritional Counseling

Poor nutrition and lack of physical activity can also contribute to health conditions, including back pain. Back pain is often caused by the lack of blood flow to the nerve roots of the spine. Your diet may be the culprit of your back pain due to it throughout the body. Our nutritional counseling ensures patients receive the nutrients they need to stay healthy and manage proper blood flow. Our chiropractor can also recommend regular exercise and other treatment methods for optimal care.
