Natural, Non-Invasive Treatment for the Many Causes of Back Pain in Flower Mound

More patients report being satisfied with how chiropractic care relieves back pain than with any other form of treatment. The reason is that we treat the underlying causes of pain instead of just masking them. Backaches can be caused by any number of problems: a pinched nerve from long term poor posture; back strain from improper movement or poor conditioning (poor ergonomics when lifting or exercising, for example); or, a herniated disc resulting from an injury. Our first step with each patient is to diagnose the root causes of the backache and address it directly.

After diagnosing the cause of your backaches, Dr. Butler applies precise, gentle adjustments to your spine. These adjustments work to realign your spine into a healthy, correct position. In the case of long-term poor posture or injury, the spine may be out of alignment and balance. When the vertebrae are misaligned, several problems can occur. Because your spinal cord (the nervous system’s information superhighway) travels from your brain through the spine and out to the rest of your body, spinal misalignments can cause a pinched nerve or nerves, which inevitably leads to pain in the back and other areas. A herniated disc can also pinch nerves on a significant scale, causing intense pain. Realigning the spine and releasing these pinched nerves leads to welcome pain relief.

In addition to spinal realignment, we will work with you to prevent future back strain. Because the spine requires support from a network of muscles, tendons, ligaments, etc., we often recommend a course of physiotherapy to help patients retrain their muscles to better support a healthy spinal alignment over the long term. We will show you more ergonomic ways to work, exercise and movement, and help you focus on developing core muscle strength in the back and abdominals in order to improve your posture. Proper form and posture during day-to-day living is an important key to preventing future back troubles.

As a chiropractor, Dr. Butler believes in the total wellness approach to helping patients overcome back pain. So a combination of spinal adjustments, therapeutic exercises, ergonomics advice, and even acupuncture and nutritional counseling may be recommended, depending on your individual needs.
