Should You Visit a Chiropractor for Low Back Pain Treatment?
Everyone experiences occasional back pain. However, if you have back pain that won’t go away or that is getting worse, you may benefit from chiropractic care. Chiropractic care offers a safe, drug-free, and all-natural remedy for back pain. At Ballinger Chiropractic, Dr. Calvin Mulanax has spent 22 years helping patients overcome low back pain in Shoreline, WA, so they can live happier, healthier lives.
What Is Causing Your Back Pain?
Dr. Mulanax doesn’t just use prescription medication to temporarily mask back pain. Instead, he does a full physical examination and diagnostic testing to find the underlying cause of your back pain. Dr. Mulanax takes the time to get to know his patients and understand their symptoms, health history, and concerns so that he can find the most effective chiropractic treatment method. The most common causes of low back pain in adults are:
- Sprained or strained muscle or ligament
- Structural problems or poor posture
- Repetitive stress or overuse
- Slipped or herniated disc
- Sciatica
- Disc degeneration
- Arthritis
How Dr. Ballinger Treats Back Pain
Dr. Mulanax uses chiropractic care to treat back pain in a safe, healthy, and all-natural way. Chiropractic care unlocks the body’s natural potential to heal itself. Dr. Mulanax will design a personalized chiropractic back pain treatment plan for you that uses chiropractic adjustments, myofascial release therapy, injury rehabilitation, diet and nutrition counseling, lifestyle modification, therapeutic exercise, and ergonomics to address current pain and prevent future pain.
What to Expect at Your First Visit
We want to make sure that even your first visit to our office is productive and helpful. During your initial consultation, Dr. Mulanax will ask you questions about your symptoms and any past injuries, surgeries, or treatments. He will assess your posture, reflexes, range of motion, and strength. He may take an x-ray, MRI, or CT scan to confirm a diagnosis or check for signs of back injury or spine or disc damage. We offer same-day low back pain treatment, and Dr. Mulanax may perform a chiropractic adjustment, soft tissue therapy, or begin physical therapy. He will also give you instructions for managing pain at home, preventing further injury or complications, and preparing for your treatment plan. We will then schedule your next visit.
