Understanding Lower Back Pain
Lower back pain is one of the most commonly reported health concerns in Australia. According to the Australian Institute of Health and Welfare, around 70-90% of people will experience lower back pain at some point in their lives. The Australian Bureau of Statistics also estimates that approximately 16% of Australians live with back-related issues.
Lower back pain can be influenced by various factors, such as injury, posture, or repetitive movements. Some people may experience localised tenderness, while others might notice discomfort that radiates into the hips or legs. In some cases, episodes of lower back pain may resolve on their own, but for others, professional care may help manage ongoing or recurring symptoms.
Common Triggers
Certain activities and positions may aggravate lower back discomfort. These may include:
- Sitting or standing for long periods
- Sudden movements or lifting
- Prolonged time in one posture, such as driving or working at a desk
- Pre-existing conditions, such as disc-related issues, which may contribute to pain or stiffness
Every individual’s experience is different, and a thorough assessment is essential to determine contributing factors.
How Chiropractic Care May Help
Chiropractic care involves manual techniques, such as spinal adjustments or mobilisations, which aim to improve joint mobility and support musculoskeletal function. Some individuals with lower back pain report relief or improved movement following chiropractic care.
We begin with a comprehensive evaluation, including a detailed history and physical examination. This process helps us determine whether chiropractic care may be appropriate for your specific situation.
If we believe you may benefit from chiropractic care, we’ll develop a tailored plan that aligns with your needs. If chiropractic care is not suitable, we’ll refer you to another healthcare professional.
Your Individual Care Plan
Your chiropractor may provide recommendations to support your recovery, which could include:
- Postural advice
- Modifications to your workstation or sleeping positions
- Movement and stretching suggestions tailored to your lifestyle
These recommendations are designed to support your overall wellbeing and assist in managing symptoms.
