Are you struggling with lower back pain? You're not alone, and finding relief might be simpler than you think. At BRAIN TO BODY® in Sydney, we're here to guide you through a comprehensive approach that tackles the pain and its root causes so you can get back to what matters most.

What Can You Expect from Chiropractic Care?

Comprehensive Assessment

Your journey to relief begins with a complimentary history. Have you booked yours? If chiropractic care can help with your problem, we invite you to start the examination. We'll link what you have shared about your history with details of your physical examination. Our physical examination examines posture, movement, ortho, neuro, and many more aspects. Depending on your needs, we might use X-rays or MRIs to pinpoint precisely what's causing your discomfort.

Spinal Adjustment

At the heart of chiropractic care is spinal Adjustment. It helps create an environment for your body to heal and restore. This involves applying controlled force to specific spinal joints to improve motion, reduce nerve dysfunction, and restore function. You might hear a popping sound—don't worry, that's just gas bubbles released from the joints, similar to cracking your knuckles.

Soft Tissue Therapies

We don't stop at spinal adjustments. Our holistic approach considers soft tissue therapies like myofascial release, which targets connective tissues to enhance mobility and reduce pain. Incorporating tools like the Adapt It Ball by BRAIN TO BODY® into your routine can make a big difference in your recovery.

Exercise and Rehabilitation

Strengthening the muscles that support your spine is crucial. We'll prescribe Functional Range Conditioning specific exercises and stretches to build strength, improve flexibility, and prevent future injuries. Plus, we'll offer complimentary ergonomic advice to help you adjust your daily activities and environment to avoid additional strain on your back.

Lifestyle and Dietary Recommendations

A holistic approach also involves lifestyle tweaks. It's about creating new, better habits to replace the old ones that created the problem. We might suggest changes in your posture, lifting techniques, and activities that could aggravate your back pain. Dietary recommendations and supplements to support spinal health might also be part of the plan, or other professionals could be suggested to collaborate with them.

So, How Long Will It Take to Find relief for my Back Pain?

Acute Lower Back Pain

For acute pain that lasts a few days to weeks, many people start feeling relief after just a few sessions—typically 2-3 times a week over 2-6 weeks. The goal is to make your body feel more comfortable and move better (reduce pain and inflammation and restore mobility).

Chronic Lower Back Pain

If your pain has lingered for over three months, a more extended treatment plan may be necessary. You might visit us regularly for several months, initially more frequently and then tapering off as you improve. Regular maintenance visits can help manage symptoms and prevent recurrence.

Severe Conditions

Your treatment plan might be more extensive in cases like a herniated disc and involve coordination with other healthcare professionals.

How Many Sessions Will I Need?

The number of sessions required varies based on your condition, health, and response to treatment. For acute pain, 2-3 sessions per week for 2-6 weeks might be enough. For chronic pain, a longer, restorative phased approach is typically used. Adhering to your post-adjustment care and lifestyle changes can help speed your recovery.
