Muscle Pain

What causes muscle pain? Some common causes are stress, over exertion and repetitive motion. Sore muscles resulting from exercise or other forms of physical stress will most often resolve after a few days. Other causes of muscle pain my stick around until something is done about it.

Stress and repetitive motion are two causes that need to be addressed when dealing with chronic muscle pain. If a muscle is hurting for an extended period of time, then therapy may be necessary. Give us a call anytime for a consultation.

Thank You For Your Referrals

Did you know?

*The number of muscles in the human body varies from about 656 to 850, depending on which source you consult. No exact figure is available because there are a variety of opinions about what constitutes an individual muscle as opposed to a part of a muscle complex. There is also some variability in muscular structure between some individuals.

Sincerely,

Dr. Ryan Marshall, D.C.

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.

– Back pain is the second leading cause of all physician visits in the U.S. In fact, half of all working Americans admit to having back pain each year. According to a study conducted by the American Chiropractic Association in 2001, 43% of patients seen by a doctor of chiropractic were treated for low-back pain.
