Back Pain

Back Treatment Center

The back is a complex structure of muscles, ligaments, nerves, and 24 vertebrae separated by flat rubbery discs that provide cushioning between these small bones.

Strain or injury to any of these components can cause back pain that is often uncomfortable and debilitating. Spinal discs offer cushion between the vertebrae, absorbing shock and protecting the spine. A variety of influences can cause spinal discs to flatten and bulge, impacting the spinal column and surrounding nerves. While some people can have a bulging disc without any symptoms, others can have back pain, numbness, discomfort, and tingling due to this spinal condition.

Causes range from normal wear and tear through the aging process to injuries, genetics and lifestyle factors. Overweight individuals, smokers, and those with a poor diet are more likely to incur a bulging disc, but this issue can happen to anyone at any age under the right circumstances.

We can consider treatments like targeted therapies (including trigger point treatments, nerve blocks, facet joint treatments, and myofascial release techniques). Let us create a tailored therapy plan for you.
