Back Pain is the second most common reason people will see their Doctors. As many as 4/5 people will have at least 1 episode of back pain in their life and the rate of re-occurrence of back problems is as high as 80%. At Northern Chiropractic and Physiotherapy we take an interdisciplinary, evidence based approach to managing your back pain. We use a collaborative care model where both your treating practitioner and other experts at our clinic work together to both relieve your back pain and prevent re-occurence. We will conduct a thorough initial assessment to determine the cause of your back pain, and develop the best evidence-based treatment plan based on the individual.
Some common issues we treat are:
- Discogenic low back pain
- “Pinched” nerves
- Mechanical back pain
- Joint fixations or hyomobility
- Joint instability such as spondylolysis and spondylolisthesis
- Muscle strains
- Nerve root entraptments
- And many many more
