Get Rid of Low Back Pain | Chiropractor for Low Back Pain in West Omaha, NE
Dr. Jeremiah Sample from Family First chiropractic and I’m here today to talk to you about how chiropractic can help eliminate low back pain. Now up to 80% of people experienced low back pain at some point in their lives and it is the number one cause for disability in the US.
As a chiropractor, what we find the vast majority of cases concerning low back pain involve a misalignment of a vertebral bone or a subluxation. Now, this happens from a variety of ways could be slip and fall and sports injury, I use it at work, even more lifting mechanics, whatever the case may be, something caused this bone to misaligned. When that happens, it damages small interspinous fibers.
Now, this is generally not where you feel pain, okay, because they don’t have the same pain receptors. However, the body can sense this damage and it sends inflammation that injured area in order to protect it. Now as the inflammation increases, eventually you’ll have nerve irritation. When that nerve irritation kicks in the body is going to spasm a muscle. Now that muscle spasm is going to act like a splint, almost like if you’re fixing a fracture. At this point, you’re not enjoying fixation mean that it’s not going away on its own anymore.
Now as a chiropractor, it’s my job to figure out exactly where this fixation or subluxation is utilize the detailed case history, additional testing and X ray examination to see precisely where it’s at and how best to adjust that back to its normal motion to eliminate the nervous system pressure and the pain associated with it.
