The Most Effective Treatment for Low Back Pain

The majority of people that have visited a chiropractor for the treatment of low back pain have not only gained significant relief from treatment.  Chiropractic care has been shown time and time again to be the most effective treatment for low back pain.

The reason that chiropractic care is so effective for fixing low back pain is that it gets to the source of the problem. In the majority of cases lower back pain starts when joints in the pelvis or spine become misaligned. Small misalingments can cause pressure and swelling on the nerves that exit the spine. This pressure can lead to anything from minor pain to extreme discomfort. Chiropractors are able to re-align the spine and the joints in the pelvis to help remove the swelling and pressure.
