Low Back Pain

Low Back Pain

The #1 reason someone will come to see a Chiropractor is low back pain. In a six-month period, five in 10 Canadians suffered low back pain1.

Over time we will be looking at some of the different problems that a Doctor of Chiropractic can help you with.

Case Presentation:
Jane, a 46 year old patient, came in to the office with dull low back pain that started three years ago with no real cause. She also gets bouts of sharp pain in her low back that last a couple seconds with sudden movements. She has never had low back pain before.

I will be posting case presentations similar to this one to illustrate the types of issues people go through. There are many reasons why someone may be experiencing low back pain. Come see me to figure out yours.
