What Causes Back Pain?
There are many possible causes of back pain, including:
- Muscle or ligament strain (from lifting, twisting, or sudden movements)
- Poor posture (sitting at a desk, slouching, carrying uneven loads)
- Disc issues (bulging or herniated discs)
- Joint dysfunction in the spine or pelvis
- Degenerative conditions (arthritis, spinal stenosis, etc.)
- Repetitive strain or overuse injuries
- Injuries from accidents, falls, or sports
The pain might be acute (short duration), sub‑acute, or chronic (persisting over weeks or months). Nerves, soft tissues (muscles, tendons, ligaments), joints, and discs can all be involved.
Low Back Pain is a Common Struggle
Low back pain is one of the most common types of pain that people experience. It can range from mild discomfort to severe, debilitating pain that interferes with everyday activities. Causes of low back pain include muscle strains, herniated discs, poor posture, and even stress. At Regenesis Pain Management & Rehab Clinic in Vaughan, our chiropractors specialize in providing effective, non-invasive treatments for low back pain.
What is Chiropractic Treatment?
Chiropractic treatment is a hands‑on health care discipline focused on diagnosing, treating, and preventing disorders related to the spine, pelvis, nervous system, and joints. Chiropractors use various methods, depending on the patient’s condition. These can include:
- Manipulations to improve joint mobility
- Soft tissue therapy (massage, myofascial release)
- Mobilization of joints
- Use of modalities such as electro‑acupuncture
- Prescribed exercises and rehabilitation to strengthen supportive muscles, improve flexibility, posture, balance, and more
How does Chiropractic Treatment Help With Back Pain?
- Pain Relief: Adjustments can reduce pressure on nerves, improve alignment, and relieve tension in soft tissues, which lessens pain.
- Improved Function & Mobility: Restoring movement in spinal joints and pelvis, stretching tight muscles, and correcting joint restrictions improves ability to move without pain.
- Prevention of Injury: By teaching proper posture, body mechanics, strengthening core/supporting muscles, care plans can reduce recurrence.
At Regenesis, we believe in holistic wellbeing. Chiropractic treatment is part of a team approach including physiotherapy, massage therapy, acupuncture, etc., so treatment can be tailored to all aspects of your condition.
What to Expect When You Come In:
Here’s a general idea of how your chiropractic journey might go at Regenesis:
- Initial assessment: We talk about your symptoms (when, where, what makes them better or worse), medical history, physical examination, maybe some functional and movement tests.
- Diagnosis & goal setting: Identify what’s contributing to the pain (muscle tightness? joint misalignment? posture? etc.), and what you want to achieve (pain relief, improved mobility, return to sports or work, etc.). We develop a personalized treatment plan that will target your concerns.
- Treatment sessions: Depending on your plan, includes adjustments/manipulations, soft tissue work, modalities, and giving you exercises to do at home or in‑clinic to reinforce your progress.
- Follow up & re‑assessment: As you improve, we adjust the treatment which may mean less frequent sessions, more focus on maintenance, prevention, strengthening, posture, etc.
