Treatments for Back Pain

Chiropractic Adjustments
Chiropractic treatment involves manual manipulation of the spine to relieve pain and improve function. It is often used with other treatments, such as soft tissue therapies, flexion distraction, and rehab.
Soft Tissue Therapies
Soft Tissue Therapies are often used to relieve pain, muscle tension and spasms, and increase blood flow. These therapies can include the Hypervolt, Cupping, or Graston Technique.
Cox Flexion Distraction- Decompression
Flexion Distraction helps decrease spinal pain, improve spinal range of motion, decreases disc pressure, helps reduce disc herniations, and decreases inflammation.
