Stop Putting Up With Low Back Pain

You don’t have to live with low back pain that stops you from doing what you love in comfort. If you’re experiencing back pain, you’re not alone—85% of people deal with back pain that’s bad enough to see a doctor.

Your chiropractor can assess the cause of your low back pain and create a comprehensive custom wellness plan to bring you relief and help prevent your pain from returning.

Causes of Lower Back Pain

Your lower back, the lumbar region of your spine, provides essential support to your upper body. It’s made up of 5 vertebrae that are cushioned by gel-like disks and supported by a complex array of ligaments, muscles, and tendons.

When there’s a disruption to this region due to an injury, a nerve or spinal cord problem, pregnancy, or other issues, your back will let you know.

Most low back pain is caused by an injury such as a strain or sprain from a sudden movement or lifting something too heavy with improper form. Or, it might be caused by sciatica or a herniated disk. Sometimes, back pain just seems to crop up out of nowhere, a seemingly inevitable part of aging.

How Can a Chiropractor Help My Lower Back Pain?

Our goal at your first appointment is to learn what you’re going through and whether we can help relieve your back pain. In your initial consultation, your chiropractor will discuss your symptoms and talk about your goals for treatment.

Next, your doctor will perform a chiropractic examination, testing your reflexes, your ability to turn and bend, and other standard neurological, orthopedic, postural, and physical examinations. That said, we will not do anything during your assessment without your consent.

Sometimes, we’ll take X-rays as part of our full evaluation, so we can rule out more serious conditions and create an effective treatment plan for you.

Sharing Our Recommendations

During your appointment, your chiropractor will give you a report of findings to answer 3 key questions:

Can you help me?
What do you recommend that I do to get better?
How much is it going to cost?

If we believe we can help, we’ll explain our recommended treatment plan. If you have a condition that requires care from other providers, the doctor will let you know.

Treatment at the First Appointment

Patients will generally be provided with their first treatment at the end of the appointment. This may include spinal adjustments (including spinal decompression), physiotherapy treatments, and/or soft tissue therapies.

Treatment is interactive, so you can always express any concerns you have about the style of adjustment or ask questions about the procedure.

Ongoing Care & Wellness Program

Finally, we’ll provide you with a wellness program to follow at home that may include stretches, exercises, the application of heat or ice, advice on developing and maintaining a healthy posture, and changes to your lifestyle that can all support your recovery from back pain.

Chiropractic works best as a phased approach, beginning by addressing pain, progressing to corrective care, and finally becoming about maintaining wellness through a series of appointments. Learn more about what to expect from chiropractic care.

Preventing Lower Back Pain

The good news is that there are some things you can do to decrease your risk of future lower back pain. For example:

Avoid lifting objects that are too heavy, using repetitive motions, or twisting while you lift
If you must lift heavy objects, use good form, including keeping the object close to your body, using your knees to lift, and keeping your core engaged
Get regular exercise that includes your abdominal core and low back and incorporates strength training
Eat a nutritious diet that supports healthy bones
If you work at a desk, get up throughout the day, change your position, and use a footrest and lumbar pillow

Securing treatment for chronic back issues has been both necessary and rewarding - Dr. Enos and Center staff are knowledgeable, caring, and a pleasure to engage with -- best health move I've made in years!

Dr Enos is Fantastic! Started seeing him due to a Car Accident and never left! He has kept me going, as well as Fixing my Almost Carpal Tunnel. I used to get pains in my wrists that would shoot up my arm, and after his wrist work. I have not felt that pain in over a Year! Working at a Computer for 17 years, and typing has taken its toll. But after seeing him, I no longer get those pains! Highly Recommend for more than just neck and back adjustments!

I cannot praise Dr. Enos and his staff enough. Dealing with scoliosis, chronic neck pain and chronic migraines I was desperate for even an ounce of relief. My neck pain and back pain is to a point where I can enjoy life again with minimal pain. My migraines have gone from extreme where I couldn't function to being able to function again while still some pain; however, the overall feel of them has drastically changed to a point I never imagined and the overall amount I get per month has been cut in at least half most months. As someone who was nervous about price as they do not take my insurance and as most have mentioned it can be expensive, I will say it's been worth every penny. Every goal he set for me at the initial consult we have met and then some.

I had chronic back pain for over 20 years. In less than 18 months I was feeling better at 33 than I felt at 12. Dr. Enos takes a precise, scientific approach that I have only ever found once before and is extremely effective. I strongly suggest to everyone i know get a check-up, even if they don't have symptoms. Keeping your spine healthy should be a more common preventative health routine in my opinion.

Dr. Enos and team have gone above and beyond to help me with a chronic sciatica issue I have been dealing with for years. Moreover, I've experienced an improvement in overall back health and recovery times thanks to the care received and guidance for at-home exercises. The office itself is extremely clean, well-organized, and relaxing. The staff are very friendly and flexible with working out a time that best fits the patient's schedule. Dr. Enos always answers my questions, ensures patient education is thorough, and has several times gone out of his way to perform extra research / recommendations based on other related health issues. If you're seeking a chiropractor, look no further than Enos Chiropractic Center - you'll be glad you did.

Worth the time & money! I’ve never had a chiropractor examine me like they did and show me x rays to back up the diagnosis. Thank goodness I went to him when I did, I am working on my overall health and always feel welcome and heard. They do everything they say they’re going to do and it is a great community feeling. Thanks Dr Enos!
