Back Pain Relief Q & A
The Wellness Center PDX
What Treatment Does the Wellness Center Offer for Back Pain?
Most back pain can be treated through nonsurgical methods. Here at The Wellness Center, we offer acupuncture as well as chiropractic care and massage therapy to treat back pain. Before treatment begins, a full examination of the back area and a review of the patient's medical history will be performed to determine the cause of the pain. Then The Wellness Center creates a tailored treatment plan based on the patient's needs.
What Causes Back Pain?
No two people are alike when it comes to back pain. Surgeries, injuries, traumas, medical diseases, tumors, and nerve compression are just a few of the reasons a person experiences back pain. The back consists of ligaments, nerves, muscles, discs, the spinal cord, and other internal systems. A person can strain, injure or damage any of these areas as they will feel pain in their upper back or lower back region.
What is the Best Way to Prevent Back Pain?
Seeking an early diagnosis when experiencing back problems can help narrow down the reasons for the pain. People can also prevent further damage from occurring and they can get the proper treatment in a timely fashion. Speaking with a qualified chiropractor in regards to the back pain, such as Dr. Gabriel at The Wellness Center, also provides a person with additional information on the types of exercises and home treatments they can perform in-between chiropractic treatments to deal with the pain.
How to Receive Chiropractic Treatment for Back Pain?
Contact The Wellness Center to arrange an initial consultation and evaluation. During the consultation, the staff will gather a thorough medical history in regards to the back pain so we can form a pain management plan that will work best in treating the person. Then, we provide our care services to finally help relieve the back pain.
