Lower Back Pain
springfield,illinois il
It's horrible what some people are put through just because they have low back pain. Hot lamps and days of traction combined with pain killers and muscle relaxers that can make you dizzy. If that doesn' t work there is always surgery.
Did you know that surgery fails 50% of the time in the first year? The failure rate increases as the years go by.
Here is what happens in many cases.
The disc between the bones of the spine pushes out and presses on the nerve. When that happens it sends pain down to the hip and leg.
With Chiropractic you heal the disc and the pain goes away. We use a Pettibon "Wobble Chair" to gently stretch muscles in the low back, restore proper joint motion, and pump nutrients and fluid into the discs.
