What We Treat – Back Pain Conditions

We specialize in treating a wide variety of spine and back-related conditions, including:

Lower Back Pain Pain caused by joint or muscle dysfunction, often worsened by movement or prolonged postures.
Herniated or Bulging Discs Disc injuries can cause sharp, radiating pain, numbness, or tingling down the legs (sciatica).
Sciatica Irritation of the sciatic nerve leads to pain, weakness, or numbness down the buttock and leg.
Degenerative Disc Disease (DDD) Age-related disc breakdown causes stiffness, inflammation, and chronic pain.
Spinal Stenosis Narrowing of the spinal canal puts pressure on the spinal cord or nerves, often causing pain while walking or standing.
Sacroiliac Joint Dysfunction Pain in the lower back and pelvis is caused by abnormal movement or inflammation of the SI joint.
Facet Joint Syndrome Inflammation or arthritis in the spine’s small joints leads to stiffness and localized back pain.

Postural Dysfunction Poor posture, often resulting from incorrect sitting, standing, or lifting habits, is common among office workers and drivers.
Spondylolisthesis A spinal vertebra slips forward over the bone below it, causing instability and pain, often in the lower back.
Myofascial Pain Syndrome Muscle pain is caused by sensitive trigger points in the back muscles.
Back Pain After Pregnancy (Postpartum) Hormonal and structural changes that occur during and after pregnancy can impact the spine and core stability.
Osteoarthritis of the Spine Wear-and-tear on the spinal joints leads to stiffness and pain, especially in older adults.
Ankylosing Spondylitis An inflammatory arthritis of the spine that causes stiffness, especially in the morning or after periods of rest.
Post-Surgical Spine Rehabilitation Guided recovery programs after spinal surgery (e.g., discectomy, laminectomy, spinal fusion) to rebuild strength and function safely.
