Your Spine Specialists

Back pain is one of the most common chronic conditions in Ireland and one of the most common causes of absence from work. Pain can present as a dull or intense ache or as a burning or stinging sensation across the lower back, sometimes travelling down one or both legs. Patients may be suffering with muscle spasms and tightness in the lower back, pelvis and hips.

Chiropractors are trained to use a range of techniques to reduce pain and improve function and mobility. Whether your goal is to relieve the pain or increase spinal mobility, we can help! When you visit the team at Vitality Chiropractic to treat back pain, the first action we will undertake will be to asses the root cause of your pain so that we can create a tailored treatment plan to lessen your pain and improve your quality of life.

What's Spinal Manipulation?

Chiropractic treatment of back pain symptoms often involves spinal manipulation: the practitioner will perform gentle but very specific adjustments by hand in order to improve the structural alignment of the spine. The areas that these adjustments are performed on are dependant on a thorough examination and diagnosis of the individual.

Chiropractic care can also involve the stretching of muscles and joints. By stretching the affected area, the chiropractor will increase the range of movement and allow the nervous system to work more effectively.
