Back pain is one of the most common reasons people visit a doctor. But unfortunately, too many people leave those appointments with nothing more than a short-term solution, a script for painkillers or a recommendation to “rest and see how it goes.” And while medication might offer temporary relief, it doesn't solve the real problem.

At Adjusting to Health, we take a different approach. We don’t just ask where the pain is, we ask why it’s happening in the first place.

Back pain isn’t random. More often than not, it’s the result of poor posture, spinal misalignments, tight muscles, and long-standing stress on the nervous system. These issues build over time, from sitting too long, heavy lifting, or just the accumulated stress of everyday life. And if you only treat the surface-level pain, the cycle continues.

Our job as Chiropractors is to get to the root of it. Through a thorough consultation, spinal scans, posture analysis, and movement assessments, we uncover how your spine is functioning, and where it’s not. Then we build a tailored corrective care plan that includes specific Chiropractic adjustments designed to restore motion, relieve pressure on the nerves, and help your body heal.

What surprises many patients is how quickly their entire system starts to improve. Yes, their back pain eases, but they also sleep better, feel more energized, and even notice changes in mood and clarity. That’s because your spine is more than just a structural frame, it’s the foundation of your nervous system, which controls everything else in your body.

We don’t believe in band-aid fixes. We believe in real correction and long-term change. If you’re tired of quick prescriptions, recurring flare-ups, or being told that back pain is just a “normal part of getting older,” you don’t have to settle.

If you’re done with band-aid fixes and want to feel genuinely better, explore how we help with back pain here.
