Quality Back Pain Care in Oakland

The back is engineered to offer flexibility, support, protection, and strength to your body. When joints are not aligned or moving well, interference to the nerves coming out of your spine can cause poor health. Pain can occur, and back pain can have a detrimental effect on your overall wellness. More to the point, the interference to the nerves that occurs with stuck joints reduces function in your body, the true definition of health. You may feel pain where you have stuck joints, you may not, but judging health solely by what you feel can miss the bigger picture entirely, and may even be dangerous. People can have heart attacks and strokes without feeling anything before the heart attack or stroke occurs. Some aspects of function for health include your muscle strength, energy, balance, digestion, breathing, headaches, sciatica, etc. People often opt for pain-relievers to help with their back injuries. However, this can only alleviate symptoms instead of treating the pain at its source, that is, by restoring function at its source. Fortunately, our team at Structural Chiropractic in Oakland offers the chiropractic care you need for optimal recovery, as we seek to resolve health issues at their source.

Causes of Back Pain

The source of back pain can vary, and a lot depends on a patient's lifestyle. The cause of your back pain is often traced to the type of conditions you are experiencing. Back pain is typically due to damage (degeneration or acute injury) or inflammation in the spinal tissues, including the muscles, ligaments, joints, discs, and nerves. Tissue damage such as muscle sprains, arthritis, or disc herniation can occur due to auto accidents, sports injuries, falls, or other types of physical traumas. In other cases, back pain might result from the wear and tear of repetitive stress and poor posture that develop over the years.
