Back Pain Treatment Brampton

What Is Back Pain?

Several people suffer from back pain – whether that is upper back, mid-back, and even lower back. In fact, it is one of the most common injuries that is treated by our staff at Brampton Chiropractic and Physiotherapy Centre

How Does It Develop?

They are many reasons as to how one can develop back pain. Some of these reasons include:

  • Poor posture
  • Repetitive movements
  • Repetitive sedentary desk/seated work
  • Low participation in physical activity/sedentary lifestyles

When you suffer from back pain, the vertebrae in the spine (spinal bones) often have abnormal movement patterns. This inhibits the functional range of motion (movement) of the spine – making it difficult for individuals to carry out their activities of daily living, pain and discomfort free. If back pain is not treated or managed in the initial stages, it can eventually become a morechronic/severe condition with ongoing pain and discomfort.

If you suffer from back pain, it is important to get assessed by a medical healthcare professional as soon as possible- whether that be a Chiropractor or Physiotherapist. Early treatment can lead to a faster recovery, prevent symptoms from worsening, and halt further injuries from occurring.

What Are Common Symptoms Of Back Pain?

Symptoms can vary person to person; however, common symptoms of back pain can include:

  • Pain in the neck, mid-back, or low back
  • “Pressure” sensation in the shoulders
  • Muscle aches
  • Pain that worsens with movement such as bending, lifting and or walking
