Lower Back Pain

At Axis Chiropractic Clinic, we understand that lower back pain can be a debilitating condition that significantly impacts your daily life. Our chiropractic care offers effective treatment options to address both the symptoms and underlying causes of lower back pain. Here’s how we can help:

1. Spinal Adjustments: Our chiropractors perform precise spinal manipulations to correct misalignments in the lumbar spine (the lower back region). These adjustments relieve pressure on nerves and improve spinal function, reducing pain and discomfort.
2. Soft Tissue Therapy: We utilise techniques such as massage and myofascial release to target tight muscles and fascia in the lower back and surrounding areas. This therapy helps reduce muscle tension and enhance blood flow, facilitating recovery and alleviating pain.
3. Dry Needling: This technique involves inserting thin needles into specific trigger points in the muscles to relieve pain and tension. Dry needling can be particularly effective for tight muscles in the lower back, promoting relaxation and improving range of motion.
4. Kinesiology Taping: We may use kinesiology tape to support the lower back. This tape helps reduce strain on muscles and joints, alleviating discomfort while allowing for greater mobility. It can also aid in the healing process by improving circulation and reducing swelling.
5. Posture Assessment and Correction: Poor posture, especially from prolonged sitting or improper lifting techniques, can contribute to lower back pain. Our chiropractors assess your posture and provide tailored guidance to help you improve it, reducing strain on your lower back.
6. Ergonomic Advice: We offer practical recommendations for ergonomic adjustments in your workspace or daily activities, helping to minimise strain on your lower back and prevent further injury.
7. Exercise and Rehabilitation: Our team creates personalised exercise programmes designed to strengthen the muscles that support your lower back, improve flexibility, and promote better posture. These exercises play a crucial role in your recovery and ongoing maintenance.
8. Lifestyle Modifications: Our chiropractors may suggest lifestyle changes, including stress management techniques and hydration tips, to positively impact your lower back pain.

By addressing both the immediate symptoms and contributing factors of lower back pain, our chiropractic care aims to provide lasting relief and improve your overall quality of life.
