A Doctor of Chiropractic has extensive education and training in providing safe, effective, and non-invasive treatment for a variety of conditions of the spine. Non-invasive treatment refers to care and therapies that are conservative and don’t require surgical procedures or incisions. If you’re suffering from back pain in Beckley and are concerned it may be caused by nerve compression or a herniated disc, one of our chiropractors can evaluate your condition and recommend a personalized chiropractic care treatment plan that may include one or more of the following:

Spinal Adjustments

During a spinal adjustment, your chiropractor will use their hands or an instrument to adjust the position of your spine gently and safely. This can help relieve nerve compression caused by a slipped disc, and relieve pain. You may need more than one treatment to find relief.

Spinal Decompression Therapy

Spinal decompression therapy is a common non-invasive treatment method for disc herniation that is causing back pain. During spinal decompression therapy, one of our chiropractors will have you lie down on a special motorized traction table. We will use a computer to control the table, gently stretching your spine so that any misaligned discs shift back into place.

Physical Therapy

If your back pain is chronic or recurring, your chiropractor may recommend physical therapy to help you build strength in your core muscles, improve your posture, and regain your flexibility and mobility. Your physical therapy treatment may include exercises, stretches, and other physical modalities to treat back pain.

Other Chiropractic Therapies

Other non-invasive chiropractic therapies may be recommended in combination with one or more of the above treatments. This may include heat or cold therapy, laser therapy, electrotherapy, therapeutic ultrasound, massage therapy, acupuncture, and HydroMassage therapy.

Our Chiropractors Can Diagnose Your Back Pain and Provide Treatment
