What causes back pain?

Back pain often develops from age-related degeneration, but it can be the result of injuries or long-term conditions such as arthritis. If you have osteoporosis, spinal stenosis, or a ruptured spinal disc, then there's a good chance you'll experience back pain. You're more at risk of getting back pain if you're overweight or living a sedentary lifestyle.

When should I see a health professional?

You should visit our chiropractor if you're experiencing chronic pain, as well as shooting or burning sensations down your spine. Symptoms of weakness, numbness, and tingling are signs of a serious nerve problem that will need medical attention.

How does a chiropractor treat back pain?

There are different treatments available for back pain and neuropathy. At Woodgrove Pines Clinic, we treat pain with spinal manipulation, physiotherapy, massage therapy, Kinesiology, reflexology, and naturopathic medicine. The chosen form of care will depend on your patient's condition and personal circumstances.

Is chiropractic care safe?

Yes! Chiropractic care is known for performing non-invasive procedures without the use of medication. Our specialists are trained and experienced in delivering safe techniques and proven methods of care.

What can I expect from a back pain relief session?
