Chiropractic Treatment for Upper Back Pain in Leesburg, VA

We use chiropractic adjustment as a treatment option for both acute and chronic upper back pain. Patients with this type of pain often experience:

• Tight, stiff muscles in the upper back, neck, and shoulders
• Dull, burning, or sharp pain in the affected area
• Weakness in the legs and arms
• Numbness and tingling in the extremities, chest, and abdomen
• Loss of bowel or bladder control, in extreme cases

Some of the most common causes of upper back pain include scoliosis, disc injuries or irritation, degenerative conditions, or poor posture. Because causes of back pain can vary, treatment plans may also be different from patient-to-patient.

Spinal manipulation is used to unblock the nervous system because proper alignment allows nerve flow to work unimpeded. This is the first step to easing upper back pain; you may also be given stretches and exercises to perform at home between visits with us in order to improve your posture and strengthen your back for lasting relief.
