That stiff, achy back pain that just wonโ€™t go away? It might not just be โ€œold age.โ€
It could be degenerative disc diseaseโ€”when the cushions between your vertebrae wear down, like the tread on a tire.

Degenerative disc disease symptoms include:

chronic back or neck pain
worse after sitting or standing too long
relief when lying down
numbness or tingling

Itโ€™s a common condition that occurs with aging, too much sitting, untreated old injuries, repetitive strain, or even genetics. Thanks mom!

The best way to fight back is with chiropractic care.

Infusing movement into your daily routine
Restoring spinal alignment and mobility
Strengthening and stabilizing the muscles that support good posture.

Your spine was made to moveโ€”letโ€™s keep it that way.

11/28/2025

Low back pain is the #1 cause of disability in the U.S.
And unfortunately, it usually doesnโ€™t just โ€œgo awayโ€.
Covering up pain with pills, injections, or surgery may relieve your pain, but unless you correct the root cause of the problem, the relief will only be temporary.

Chiropractic care is an incredible all-natural back pain treatment. It relieves pressure on the nervous system to improve how our body functions and decrease pain. Pain is a signal from our body that something is wrong. We need to listen to that signal and correct the root cause of the issue.

Whether itโ€™s poor posture, muscle tension, a disc herniation or bulge, or unresolved old injuries, chiropractic can give you:

Natural Pain Relief. Better Mobility. Improved Posture. Your Life Back!

You donโ€™t have to live with back pain.
Chiropractic is a safe, natural way to restore balance and keep your body moving the way it was meant to.
