Common Causes of Upper Back Pain

A common reason for upper back pain is poor posture while sitting at a desk for long hours. Driving long distances can lead to pain in your upper back, while weak back muscles can contribute to bad posture. If you have experienced an auto accident, you can strain your back muscles, causing pain. Arthritis, bulging, or herniated discs can lead to upper back pain without treatment.

Upper Back Pain Treatment with Our Chiropractor

Chiropractic care provides natural pain relief for upper back pain using several treatment modalities. First, the alignment of your cervical spine will be evaluated, and chiropractic adjustments will get your spine correctly aligned. Next, ultrasound and electrical muscle stimulation will improve blood flow to the area, which enhances your ability to heal. You can be taught exercises to stretch and strengthen your upper back between treatment sessions. Once you are experiencing pain relief, you can start to taper down your sessions with a chiropractor until you only start going for maintenance therapy periodically.
