Good posture can be successfully acquired only when the entire mechanism of the body is under perfect control. - Joseph Pilates

No wonder we were often admonished to stand up straight! Posture matters. West Des Moines back pain patients are quite familiar with this. Executive Chiropractic of Iowa makes sure that they do! Poor posture and back pain often go together. Executive Chiropractic of Iowa treats them together. Executive Chiropractic of Iowa and our West Des Moines chiropractic patients experience improvement in one often is followed by improvement in the other.

POSTURE AND West Des Moines BACK PAIN

Many issues factor into the connection between West Des Moines back pain and posture. The body mechanism really is at work as Pilates suggests. Researchers say that poor posture is reported to change joint position and produce pain, like back pain. Musculoskeletal back pain is bettered when postural issues are addressed. (1) Recent research says that even patients who experience plantar heel pain find themselves with more low back pain and higher rates of low back pain disability because of reduced foot and ankle function. (2) If one leg is shorter than the other, hip pain is documented to appear on the longer leg side. Sciatica (leg pain) and disc protrusion do , too. (3,4,5) Leg length inequality modifies posture and may trigger back pain. Executive Chiropractic of Iowa takes care of this myriad of concerns with chiropractic care options like spinal manipulation, exercise and sometimes orthotic lifts for all of our West Des Moines back pain patients.

TREATMENT FOR POSTURE RELATED BACK PAIN

A foundation of the West Des Moines chiropractic treatment plan for patients with West Des Moines back pain and postural issues is often manual therapy spinal manipulation (after a full examination, of course!). Executive Chiropractic of Iowa chooses this option as spinal research indicates that it is valuable accompanied by posture correction. Manual therapy treatment boosts posture improvement and low pain reduction more significantly than low back massage. (6) Three treatments of manipulation improved posture control and decreased pain in a female patient experiencing low back pain and uneven balance. (7) Executive Chiropractic of Iowa uses posture-correcting, pain-reducing West Des Moines chiropractic care.
