Low Back Pain
Do you know someone with low back pain? *At any given time there are 31 million Americans that experience low back pain. That is just the lower back not including neck and mid-back pain. Just think of all the Americans with neck and mid-back pain also.
So what is the cause of low back pain, or any back pain for that matter? There are many factors that can contribute to back pain. Stress and trauma are two of the most common contributors. Stress on muscles and joints, from activities such as sports, or other activities of daily living as well as mental stress can cause misalignments of the spine. Car wrecks, slips, falls and even repetitive motions are some of the traumas that can cause misalignments.
Do you know someone with low back pain? If so let them know they can call to schedule a free consultation anytime to see if chiropractic is right for them. Call (918) 494-0929.
