Find out what you can expect before scheduling an appointment for back pain treatment in Fort Wayne.
Symptoms Treated with Lower Back Adjustments
Our chiropractors may recommend a lower back adjustment if you are complaining of certain symptoms or have been diagnosed with chronic low back pain, age-related disc degeneration, arthritis, sciatica, a lumbar injury, or repetitive stress injury. A lower back adjustment is a safe, non-invasive low back pain treatment method that doesn’t rely on the use of prescription drugs or surgery. You may want to consider a lower back adjustment if you have one or more of these symptoms:
- Low back pain
- Stiffness
- Loss of range of motion
- Back spasms
- Inflammation
- Numbness or tingling
- Pain that radiates from the back down one leg
- Trouble standing, sitting, walking, or lying down; or trouble rising from a seated or prone position
What to Expect During the Procedure
During the procedure, you will lie fully clothed on an examination table. One of our chiropractors will use their hands or an instrument to manipulate your spine, muscles, and limbs to stretch the muscles and stimulate joint release. They may also bend your joints or limbs or position you in a particular way to make it easier to treat you. You should try to stay relaxed during the procedure, but let our chiropractor know if something they do is painful or uncomfortable.
Follow-Up Chiropractic Treatment & Care
In order to provide the most effective low back pain treatment possible, our chiropractors will recommend follow-up care. They may suggest a combination of different therapies in addition to a lower back adjustment. For instance, combining a chiropractic adjustment with therapeutic massage, exercises and stretches, acupuncture, and myofascial release therapy may give you lasting relief from low back pain.
