Why Back Pain Happens
Your back works hard every day, supporting your body, absorbing impacts, and allowing you to bend in all directions. Over time, muscles, joints, and discs can become worn down, too stiff, or too loose. Poor posture, repetitive stress, accidents, or even foot mechanics can contribute to discomfort. And sometimes, back pain isn’t alone, but accompanied by neck pain, shoulder pain, hip pain, or even symptoms like sciatica.
Absolute Wellness’s Integrated Chiropractic Approach
Dr. Johnson-Rodriguez blends traditional chiropractic adjustments with advanced therapies to promote healing and mobility:
- Cox Flexion – A gentle, controlled technique that helps decompress spinal discs and reduce nerve irritation.
- Active Release – A hands-on soft tissue therapy done while a patient is in motion to break down adhesions and improve muscle function.
- Graston Technique – Instrument-assisted therapy that breaks down scar tissue and fascial restrictions.
- Deep Tissue Laser – Uses focused light to stimulate healing and reduce inflammation.
- Dry Needling – Loosens muscle trigger points to relieve pain and restore mobility.
- Custom Orthotics – Support proper alignment from the feet up, which can reduce stress on your back and improve posture.
By combining these treatments, we can correct many of the causes of pain, not just the symptoms.
Beyond the Back
Therapies available at our Greensboro, North Carolina, office can also help with many conditions, including:
- Plantar Fasciitis – Foot pain that can contribute to posture and back problems.
- Forearm and Hand Pain – Often linked to repetitive motion injuries or nerve irritation in the neck and upper back.
Because the body works as a whole, balancing one area can have a positive ripple effect throughout your system.
