🦴 Back Pain

Chiropractor in St Albans, VIC

Understanding Back Pain

Back pain is one of the most common reasons people visit a chiropractor. Whether it’s a dull ache from long hours at a desk, sharp pain after lifting something heavy, or ongoing discomfort from an old injury — back pain can stop you from living and moving freely.

At North West Chiropractic, our goal is to find the underlying cause of your pain and create a clear plan to help you recover, not just mask the symptoms.

Common Causes We See

  • Poor posture and long periods of sitting

  • Muscle strain or joint restriction

  • Sports or work-related injuries

  • Disc irritation or sciatica (nerve pain)

  • Pregnancy-related back pain

  • Stress and lifestyle factors

How Chiropractic Care Can Help

Our chiropractors use gentle, evidence-based techniques to restore proper joint movement, reduce muscle tension, and improve spinal alignment. By addressing the source of your discomfort, chiropractic adjustments can help:

  • Decrease pain and stiffness

  • Improve mobility and flexibility

  • Support better posture and body balance

  • Prevent recurring episodes of back pain

We’ll also show you simple stretches, posture tips and strengthening exercises to support your recovery at home.

What to Expect at Your First Visit

Your first appointment includes a thorough assessment — discussing your history, lifestyle and goals, followed by physical testing to pinpoint what’s causing your back pain.

Once we’ve explained our findings, you’ll receive a tailored treatment plan that may include:

  • Chiropractic adjustments

  • Soft tissue therapy

  • Dry needling

  • Rehabilitation and ergonomic advice

When to Seek Help

You don’t need to “wait it out” or rely solely on pain medication. If your back pain lasts longer than a few days, radiates into your legs, or keeps coming back, professional care can make a big difference.
