Lower Back Pain Chiropractor in Kansas City

Low back pain is one of the leading causes of disability in the United States.

Research shows that 80% of individuals will experience low back pain at some point in their life, and up to 40% in any one year. Acute low back pain is oftentimes a result of chronic dysfunction presenting as acute pain. Chronic low back pain can be a result of cumulative trauma from repetitious movements or positions. Common activities that may cause low back pain are bending and twisting movements, sitting for prolonged periods, lifting heavy objects, or traumatic events such as falling.

Treatments for Lower Back Pain

Exact treatment of lower back pain in Kansas City can depend on the type of injury. It is common for low back pain to result from lack of mobility elsewhere in the body, whether it be from the ankles, mid-back, or pelvis. Treatments such as Active Release Technique, Graston, FAKTR, and Dry Needling can be incredibly beneficial for decreasing muscle tightness and improving mobility in these areas. The doctors at F.I.T. will also assess core and hip stability to address any underlying dysfunction that may be contributing to your low back pain. Techniques like DNS and FAKTR can be incredibly beneficial for improving stability in these regions and restoring proper function to the joints.
