Lumbalgia

Prolonged periods of poor posture, whether at work or during leisure activities, along with sudden movements or improper gestures, can lead to lower back pain, commonly known as lumbalgia or lumbago.

When nerves in the lumbar region are pinched, it can cause significant pain in the lower back. Lumbalgia is often the result of severe muscle contractions that restrict mobility in this area.

Chiropractic care can be highly effective in alleviating pain, correcting posture, and enhancing overall health. By addressing these issues, chiropractic care helps to prevent future problems and improve overall well-being.

Lower back pain often arises in the following situations:

  • Scoliosis: Abnormal curvature of the spine that can cause lower back pain.
  • Spondylolisthesis: Slippage of one vertebra over another, leading to lower back pain and stiffness.
  • Arthritis: Inflammation of the joints that can affect the spine and result in lower back pain.
  • Lumbar stenosis: Narrowing of the spinal canal that puts pressure on the nerves and causes lower back pain.
  • Pregnancy: Changes in center of gravity and increased weight can lead to lower back pain in pregnant women.
  • Kidney stones: Can cause referred pain in the lower back.
  • Infections: Infections in the spine, such as osteomyelitis or discitis, can lead to lower back pain.
  • Endometriosis: A gynecological condition that can cause lower back pain due to inflammation of the endometrial tissue.
  • Fibromyalgia: A disorder characterized by widespread musculoskeletal pain, which may include lower back pain.

Benefits of Chiropractic Care for Lower Back Pain

What Will a Chiropractor Do to Help You?

  • Perform very precise adjustments to relieve pressure on the lumbar nerves, reposition the lumbar vertebrae, and align the pelvis correctly.
