Anchorage AK Back Pain Relief Done Naturally Through Chiropractic Therapy Without Medication

By Lakisha Curtsinger


If you experience back pain, there are several options available that may bring help. Unfortunately, many involve use of medication, shots or surgery. An Anchorage Chiropractor offers a natural and non-invasive alternative.

Chiropractors use many methods to help patients experience less pain. Their goal is to restore balance to the body. Restoring balance includes realigning the spine to reducing pressure on the central nervous system. As balance is restored to the body, the natural healing forces take over and the pain is reduced.

During the patient's initial visit to the clinic, the chiropractic doctor makes an evaluation. It includes a medical history, similar in nature to that taken with any other doctor's visit. Patients undergo a manual exam and many need tests such as x-rays. The chiropractic doctor uses the information gained to develop an appropriate therapy plan to encourage natural healing of one's back problem.

If the chiropractic doctor finds it appropriate, he may perform the adjustment. He places pressure on the back, either abrupt or low in force, using his hands of special tools. In addition, the doctor may use chiropractic massage and other types of therapy to relax muscles, making the adjustment more effective. Electrotherapy, ultraviolet therapy and infrared heat therapy are a few of the other options available.

Chiropractors begin their training working toward a bachelor's degree. They may graduate with the degree or be accepted into chiropractic school after three years in college. Once in the school they are trained in the classroom as well as clinics. Afterwards, they often participate in residencies in certain areas of practice. They must be licensed by their state to practice chiropractic.

An Anchorage chiropractor may be able to provide relief for your aching back. In the evaluation stages, the doctor first determines if you would benefit from this type of therapy. While most patients do benefit, in some cases, the doctor recommends patients consult with other types of care providers better equipped to meet their needs.
