Lower Back Pain – Chiropractor Melbourne
Lower back pain is one of the most common reasons people seek out a chiropractor—and for good reason. Whether it’s a dull ache, a sudden spasm, or sharp pain that stops you in your tracks, lower back issues can seriously affect your work, sleep, movement and mood.
At our chiropractic centre in Brunswick, we provide natural, hands-on care to help you relieve pain, restore mobility and build long-term resilience—without the need for drugs or surgery.
Common Causes of Lower Back Pain
Not all back pain is the same. It can stem from joints, discs, nerves or muscles—and often more than one factor is involved.
Our chiropractors commonly see cases related to:
- Disc injuries (bulging, herniated or degenerative discs)
- Sacroiliac joint dysfunction – pain at the base of the spine
- Facet joint strain – often worsens with bending or twisting
- Muscle spasm or soft tissue strain
- Sciatica – nerve pain radiating down the leg
- Postural overload from prolonged sitting or standing
- Pelvic imbalance or misalignment
Even if your pain came on suddenly, there may have been underlying tension building for weeks or months. Early care can help prevent a minor issue from turning chronic.
Chiropractic Treatment for Lower Back Pain
Our approach is not just about cracking backs. We take a thorough look at how your spine, pelvis and nervous system are working together—and create a care plan tailored to your condition and goals.
Depending on your case, treatment may include:
- Spinal adjustments to improve mobility and alignment
- Soft tissue therapy to release tight muscles
- Pelvic balancing to correct leg length discrepancy or uneven pressure
- Postural retraining for sitting, lifting or working more safely
- Exercise rehab to build strength and stability
- Shockwave therapy (if appropriate) for chronic tendon injuries, muscle tension, fascia irritation, calcific deposits, and slow bone healing, promoting natural repair and pain relief.
We also work with Physios, Podiatrists, GPs and other health professionals where needed, and will refer for imaging if your condition requires further investigation.
