Low Back Pain

Low Back Pain – Why Your Spine Might Be Talking to You

“My lower back just won’t settle—I can’t sit, stand or sleep comfortably.”

If this sounds familiar, you’re not alone. Low back pain is one of the most common reasons people seek chiropractic care. Whether it’s a dull ache or sharp discomfort, it can affect how you move, sleep, and even your mood.

At Living Chiropractic, we focus on finding the underlying cause of your pain—not just masking the symptoms. Our chiropractors use the Gonstead System, a highly specific method that allows us to identify spinal misalignments, assess nerve function, and gently restore movement.

What’s Causing My Back Pain?

Low back pain can be triggered by:

  • Poor posture or prolonged sitting

  • Muscle imbalances or sprains

  • Disc irritation or nerve pressure

  • Previous injuries that never fully healed

  • Pregnancy or weight changes

Sometimes, it’s not just one issue—your spine, muscles, and nerves all work together, and when one is out of balance, the others are affected.

How We Can Help

We start with a comprehensive spinal assessment, which may include posture checks, neurological testing, and if needed, on-site digital X-rays (Medicare covered). Your personalised care plan may include:

  • Targeted chiropractic adjustments to restore proper spinal movement

  • Postural correction strategies

  • Myotherapy or remedial massage to ease muscle tension and support recovery

Research shows that chiropractic care is effective for improving mobility and reducing pain in people with non-specific low back pain.

Don’t Let Low Back Pain Limit Your Life

Chiropractic care may offer a safe, drug-free path to recovery. We take the time to assess your condition thoroughly and tailor your treatment using proven techniques.
