Low back pain is probably the number one reason people find themselves looking for a chiropractor. Almost every human on earth can relate to having pain, stiffness or overall discomfort in the lower back. Underlying that discomfort may be something more benign, such as tight musculature from poor posture or a weak core. It also might be something more significant, like a bulging or herniated disc (if you’ve experienced this one, no further explanation needed!). All of these can make it difficult to sit, stand, bend, lift, exercise, or sleep comfortably. Sometimes you can’t even put on your pants or tie your shoes! Pain in the lumbar spine can begin suddenly after an injury or develop gradually from repetitive strain, prolonged sitting, physical work, or changes involving the muscles, joints, discs, or nerves of the lower back. At Northland Spine and Rehabilitation, we provide personalized chiropractic care for patients with low back pain in Kansas City and the Northland. Dr. Blake Overly will work to ask the right questions, perform a thorough evaluation and put together a treatment plan that makes sense and gets you out of the pain in a quick and efficient manner!
