Treating Back Pain In

Thirroul

Back pain can be caused by one dramatic incident (e.g., a sports injury) and it can also be caused by an accumulation of micro-traumas over time. Factors such as poor posture, repetitive motions, improper lifting, and even sleeping habits can weaken the spine and eventually result in discomfort.

Many people find that their back pain began after a seemingly simple activity, like bending over to pick up a towel or reaching for something on a high shelf. These small, everyday motions can trigger pain because of underlying issues that have built up over the years. When these micro-traumas accumulate, they can create a “tipping point” where a minor movement becomes the final straw, leading to significant discomfort.

The Role Of Chiropractic Care

Chiropractic care differs from conventional medicine in that it addresses the root cause of back pain rather than just alleviating symptoms. The spine houses the nervous system, which controls and coordinates every function in the body.

Our chiropractors aim to identify underlying causes—the “fire” and “spark” that led to movement dysfunction. For example, a problem in the neck might be the source of lower back pain, as the nervous system is interconnected. By correcting poor movement patterns, chiropractic care helps restore proper function, allowing the body to heal naturally.

Is Back Pain Normal?

Many people suffer from back pain at some point in their lives - but it doesn't need to be a persistent problem that effects your wellbeing. Through Chiropractic care, we're able to help alleviate the symptoms of back pain by addressing the underlying causes.

Will It Get Worse?

Ignoring or pushing through back pain can lead to further complications. Left unchecked, it often worsens over time, much like a punctured car tyre that will degrade if not repaired.

Even if symptoms temporarily subside, the underlying problem can continue to develop, leading to compensatory changes in the body that create new issues. This cycle of compensation can result in chronic pain and more severe dysfunction. Chiropractic care at Thirroul Chiropractic & Health can quickly break this cycle by addressing the root cause.
