Back Pain Phoenix

Back injuries are a common problem stemming from car accidents. To treat back pain, chiropractic care is more recommended and safer than surgery.

Many studies show that results from chiropractic care are often more safe and effective than back surgery.

The chiropractic approach is to help restore normal motion and position of affected spinal bones with chiropractic adjustments. The simplicity of the chiropractic approach has been documented in numerous research projects and helped patients forgo risky surgery.

Chiropractic doctors often consult with the primary doctors of patients when designing care programs for patients with disc involvement.

Surgical treatment often involves removing these facet joints, exposing the spinal cord. Another cause of lower back pain can be a bulging disc putting pressure on the spinal cord or a nearby nerve root. Patients then experience numbness, tingling, or pain down the leg. Removing bulging disc tissue can alter the ability to separate and cushion adjacent bones.

Many of the pain-sensing nerves of the spine are in the facet joints, two fingers at the back of each spinal bone. The normally smooth surfaces on which these joints glide, can become rough, irritated, and inflamed.
