NON-SPECIFIC LOW BACK PAIN
Chronic non-specific low back pain is back pain that
has been annoying for more than 3
months and doesn’t seem to have a specific cause. Usual care is education and reassurance,
analgesic medications, and non-pharmacological therapies. Formal
medical care is not commonly needed though
imaging, opioids and surgery are often overused. (1) Visceral
fascial limitations, restrictions of the deep fibrous connective tissues surrounding
muscles, bones, nerves, arteries and veins), may cause pain in the

CHIROPRACTIC CARE OF NON-SPECIFIC LOW BACK PAIN
An interesting approach
chiropractic’s collegial profession of osteopathy utilizes and writes
cases and explanations of its success in reducing non-specific
low back pain is treating the diaphragm, that dome-shaped
muscular structure that divides the thoracic (chest) and
abdominal sections of the body. The diaphragm originates
along the lumbar vertebrae of the spine and connects to the
lower ribs. (3) It moves when we breathe. Stretching the diaphragm notably
enhances cervical spine extension, right and left cervical spine
flexion, flexibility of the posterior chain (the muscles of the backside
of the body) and ribcage movement at the xiphoid level (the bottom
tip of the chest’s sternum). (4) Via manipulation and
treating the diaphragm created significant reduction
in pain and disability for patients with non-specific chronic low back pain. (5)
Treating the thoracic spine (mid-back) with mobilization along with treatment of the low back specifically and
breathing exercises for non-specific chronic low back pain improves respiration
and reduces disability for these patients. (6) Improvements
like this are very appreciated
by sufferers with Buffalo, NY non-specific low back pain.
