Why won’t my back pain go away - Signature Wellbeing

Why your back pain is not leaving.
Why won’t my back pain go away? Many a times’ people will go to an anti-inflammatory or pain killer solution for this. What you need to remember is that over the counter drugs, and even prescription drugs are simply masking the problem, they are not dealing with the cause. Removing the pain or inflammation will make you feel better in the short term; however it does not remove the reason and cause why your back pain won’t go away.
We all see fancy adverts on TV showing how such medicine works, however I hate to break it to you but the Panadol or neurofen you are taking is not a little red fuzzy ball that moves around your body to get to the source of the problem.
Many times your body will build up a resilience against certain medication, which is why it becomes less effective and is the reason why you continue to ask yourself why won’t my back pain go away.
Our Chiropractic Clinic in Malvern
offers a process to help detect and treat the possible cause of your back pain. An initial consultation that goes for approx. 30 minutes is used to see if we can properly identify the reason your experiencing back pain, and we can let you know whether we can help or not

Chiropractic in Greek means “to do by hand.” The goal of chiropractic is to remove the body from the state of dis-ease (this is different to disease, just think the body should work with “ease” and this is not being experienced), through the adjustment and stimulation of the nervous system by hand. To be in pain, or to suffer an illness, is an unnatural state of being and through chiropractic treatment, one may improve their general wellbeing. In most cases, chiropractic allows you to surpass your expectation of wellness. Chiropractic has been quite popular since its initial development in 1885; its history traces back to ancient practices within Egyptian and Chinese societies to promote healing and wellness. Its contribution is immemorial. However, in an age of overdiagnosis and symptom minimisation, more people in our community have been turning to chiropractic than ever. In the case of our practice and many of my colleagues, I have seen more and more individuals walk through my door seeking change in their day-to-day lives. Whether it be a desire for pain relief, the maintenance of a healthy lifestyle free from medication, or a total lifestyle change, it is clear that there is a genuine desire for care. Chiropractic care focuses on the body’s innate ability to heal and improve through the adjustment and movement of the nervous system. This - in turn - reduces the stress on those nerves and allows for their proper functioning. This theory leads to an idea of complete bodily autonomy; Your body can, and with assistance, it will. What an empowering thought. Chiropractic aims to serve every individual who lies down on the table. It is a genuine care and investment in the individual's well-being and livelihood, and it’s our honour and privilege as Chiropractors, to serve you.
