Bakersfield Back Pain Relief Done Naturally Through Chiropractic Therapy

By Guy Lobdell


A Bakersfield CA chiropractor offers help for patients who suffer from pain in their backs. Chiropractic offers a hands-on type of medication that uses adjustments of the individual's spinal column as well as other parts of the body to reduce and eliminate pain. According to chiropractic theory, spinal misalignments interrupt communication between one's brain and the rest of the body causing pain.

Back problems have been found to be the top reason individuals schedule chiropractic appointments. The therapy helps to bring pain relief and restore mobility. Adjustments are particularly effective at bringing back pain relief.

While there are many types of back problems, lower back pain in particular is often helped by chiropractic care. The therapy helps to restore a more normal range of motion to the lower spine. In addition, the care provided can relieve the stress of surrounding tissues, such as tendons, ligaments, muscles and nerves to relieve the pain and restore normal function to the back.

Spinal subluxations can be corrected with chiropractic adjustments. These adjustments are performed manually by using gentle forces applied with the hand. The pressure used gently coaxes the vertebrae back to their normal position. Doctors sometime use gentle stretching or massage to relax the muscles and make the adjustment easier.

Chiropractors also provide advice to patients concerning ergonomics and specific exercises that are designed to reduce back pain. Often the patient is provided with exercises to stretch and strengthen the back. Following this routine can ensure the spine remains in proper alignment.

Patients may find relief from their back problems by visiting a Bakersfield CA chiropractor. The methods used are natural and non-invasive and often eliminate one's need for surgery. Patients appreciate that the therapy provided is not dependent on surgery, pain medication or muscle relaxants that often have undesirable side effects.
