Do You Suffer From Lower Back Pain?

Lower back pain is a fairly common ailment, especially in today’s world. Around 80% of adults experience some form of lower back pain at some point in their life. Sometimes the condition is temporary and can go away in a couple of days or weeks.

For others, however, the condition can be chronic and can severely impact the quality of life. At Mount Royal Village Family Chiropractic, we understand the anatomy of lower back pain and can provide treatment that may help your condition. Our team uses several techniques, from chiropractic adjustments to deep tissue massages.

Lower Back Structure

The lower back includes five vertebrae and intervertebral discs between them. Ligaments hold the vertebrae in place, and the tendons connect the spinal cord to the surrounding supporting muscles. This structure supports the weight of the entire upper body and absorbs shocks from the lower body.

If any component of this complicated mechanism is misaligned, damaged, inflamed, or strained, you might experience lower back pain.
