“How can I relieve back pain?”

I would recommend seeing a chiropractor to put the vertebrae in the proper alignment, which will reduce muscle tension. For my patients, massage therapy before the adjustments helps to reduce tension and increase the length of time that adjustments will hold for. Core exercises and a regular stretching routine can also help to address low back pain but I would recommend seeing a provider to evaluate your low back and ensure that the exercises/stretches you are doing are going to be beneficial!

There are many causes of back pain. The best solution would be to go see your chiropractor.

Hi. Lower back pain has many different causes. You need to see a chiropractor or chiropractic neurologist so that your pain can be properly diagnosed. Each different cause has a different treatment. So please get it diagnosed correctly. Taking medication may temporarily relieve the pain but I am sure you want it corrected once and for all. Thanks for your question.
