Irritation in the following areas can all be common in back pain.

Disc

  • The vertebral discs must be assessed for structural balance and integrity
  • When a disc bulges it can pinch a nerve or cause inflammation and create pain in the area or refer pain to another area
  • Our Naturopathic Doctors have treatments that can help speed the recovery of disc injuries and give relief from the pain.

Ligaments or tendons

  • Strains and tears in the ligaments or tendons that hold the joints of the back together can affect the stability of the spine and cause back pain.
  • Our Naturopathic Doctors have treatments that can help heal ligaments and tendons and reestablish the stability of the spine.

Muscle

  • Muscle spasms or muscle sprains can both be a source of back pain.  These muscle spasms or muscle sprains can be at the site of pain or even in areas that are not at the site of the pain.  These muscle irritations lead to holding patterns in the muscles that can create nerve pain, inflammation, or degenerative changes.
  • Our Naturopathic Doctors have many techniques to help heal muscle issues in the back as well as other areas of the body.
