What other symptoms could I have with back pain?
Your back pain may be constant or come and go. It could range from a dull ache to severe electric shock pain. Many spine conditions and injuries push against the nearby blood vessels and nerves.
Disrupted blood flow can cause problems throughout the body area served by the vessel. Pinched nerves cause pain and tingling traveling down your leg or arm or throughout your chest (depending on the compressed nerve’s location).
Sudden, extreme pain shooting down one leg is the classic sign of a pinched sciatic nerve (sciatica). Severe nerve damage leads to numbness and muscle weakness in your arms or legs.
What back pain treatments might I need?
Spinal manipulation is the foundation of chiropractic treatment for back pain. Realigning your spine promotes your body’s natural healing ability.
Dr. Henze has extensive training in Palmer techniques, including several manual spinal manipulation approaches. He combines manual techniques with other therapies, creating personalized treatments that may include any of the following:
- Spinal decompression
- Therapeutic massage
- Laser therapy
- Trigger point therapy
- Activator Method®
- Myofascial release
- Pulsed electromagnetic field therapy (PEMF)
- Transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS)
