Causes Of Back Pain
Because the muscles, ligaments, bones, discs and nerves that comprise your spinal column are so interconnected, it's often difficult to determine without a comprehensive exam and X-rays, exactly what the cause of your pain may be.
Also, an injury or stress in one area, can lead to additional problems in a kind of "domino effect." For instance, a simple muscle strain may cause you to compensate by carrying your weight differently which can lead to an overall imbalance in the spine or strain on different muscles creating additional problems.
Here are a few of the most common causes of back pain:
Injury or overuse: If you've been injured in an auto, work, or recreational accident, get help at once . Since injury can affect muscles, ligaments, bones or discs around the spine, it's important that you get a proper diagnosis and treatment plan (if required) before the dominos begin to fall.
Repetitive motion and overuse of muscles and joints due to excessive bending, lifting, or other unusual exercise can also cause damage, injury or pain. These symptoms may disappear in time, but if structural damage has occurred, they or other seemingly unrelated symptoms could flare up later. A spinal exam or assessment is recommended
Nerve Pressure or Damage: Pressure on nerve roots in the spinal canal can be caused in a variety of ways; from injury or overuse as mentioned above or from disease or degeneration as follows:
Emotional and Physical Stress: Stress in life can cause muscle tension and set off a vicious cycle of pain. As muscles contract, fatigue can cause muscle aches or pain. Pain and discomfort can lead to sleeplessness with its associated problems such as irritability, depression, and reduced immune function. And so the problems perpetuate.

Treatment Options
Common treatments of upper and lower back pain include everything from bed rest to surgery. REMEMBER: Pain is NOT the natural state of the body, nor is it a "normal" side effect of aging. Pain is the body's way of telling you something is wrong! The best solution is to identify the cause of your pain and correct it-not simply mask the symptoms.
Any of the following treatments can be effective, but most have associated risks of which you should be aware. For this reason it is best to consult with a trusted healthcare practitioner, especially if pain is severe or prolonged.
However sensible getting off your back may seem, studies show that bed rest is NOT superior to remaining (conservatively) active to treat a low back injury. In fact, prolonged bed rest can actually lead to increased stiffness and pain and a reduced ability to function. Periodic short rests can be helpful and your healthcare provider may advise a reduction of normal activity.
Immediately after an injury, ice your back for about 15 minutes at least 3 to 4 times a day to reduce or prevent inflammation and swelling. After 2 to 3 days, if symptoms persist, use a heating pad for 15 to 20 minutes every 2 or 3 hours. Then, if pain continues, see a healthcare professional.
Non-prescription pain relievers such as acetaminophen (i.e. Tylenol) or other non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs or NSAIDS (i.e. ibuprofen) may be helpful for temporary relief, but are NOT advisable for chronic pain or long term use. Tylenol has recently been linked to liver disease and ibuprofen to bleeding ulcers. Doctors often prescribe stronger drugs for pain, but of course, these have other risky side effects including mental or physical impairment, behavioral effects, and addiction. Extreme caution should be used when undergoing any chemical therapy for pain.
Most back pain problems can be treated effectively without costly and risky surgeries. In fact, one recent study shows that up to 40% of back surgery patients report a DIS-satisfactory result within 4 years of treatment. For this reason, other more natural, less invasive treatments should be explored or exhausted before choosing surgical intervention.
Chiropractic is a natural form of treatment that operates on the premise that the body is designed to heal itself. Chiropractors actually have more training than a traditional general or family care physician. Chiropractors use gentle spinal adjustments to correct spinal misalignment and relieve pressure on sensitive nerves. They often combine this form of treatment with other non-invasive modalities such as muscle stimulation, ultrasound, massage, and physical therapy to relieve symptoms and rebuild core strength and maintain permanent correction. The chiropractor's goal is always to correct the problem, not simply hide the symptoms.
Testimonials
*"After being involved in a car accident, I was experiencing loss of mobility as well as neck and back pain (whiplash). After receiving treatment in the emergency room I was released, being given a prescription for muscle relaxers and main medication, and told to rest. I am a working mother and Taekwondo Instructor "rest" was not an option. I then consulted with Dr. Bo and treatment began immediately. After only a couple of treatments I was moving better and the pain significantly reduced. Now, I feel great, the pain is gone, and I can move freely again. All without medication!"
"I love my chiropractor."
Maria W.
*"Dr. Janczar has been my chiropractor for 21 years and still counting. She has seen me through 3 whiplash injuries and 1 lower back injury.
I know how important chiropractic treatments are for my health and well being. If I wait too long in between treatments I will get a terrible headache that will last for days.
I have 2 curvatures in my spine; 1 in my neck and the other in my lower back. My neck gives me the most trouble. On 2 occasions my pain was behind my eye and my arm went numb. I went to see Dr. Janczar and after my treatment the pain was gone within minutes!
Thank you so much Dr. Janczar for all the care you have given me and continue to give me."

*"At the end of April 2009, I got sciatica. I had terrible pain in my left lower back that ran down the side of my leg and into my large toe. My ankle started to give out and I twisted it many times. It became very swollen and painful. I couldn’t walk or sleep at night. My friend recommended her chiropractor, Dr. Janczar, I quickly took her up on her recommendation. My medical doctor just prescribed medication that was not helping and I did not want to take it because of the side effects. When I came to Dr. Janczar’s office, the clinic atmosphere was warm and pleasant. I felt better after Dr. Janczar’s treatment and after 6 weeks, the pain was completely gone and I can dance again. I still feel great and I am grateful to Dr. Janczar for giving me the ability to laugh and enjoy my life again. I highly recommend Dr. Janczar to anyone who may be suffering like I did. I really trust her because she is responsible, caring and has a heart of gold."

*"After 25 years of sciatica problems and back pain my health plan finally offered chiropractic services as an alternative to taking anti- inflammatory and pain medications. The treatments and therapies used to relax the muscles that were spasmed on my back helped me get back to a quality of life I could enjoy without medications or pain."
Manuel B.
*"Last year, I came in to see Dr. Bo with severe dizziness. At first I thought I had an ear infection so I got some antibiotics from my family doctor they seemed to help while I was taking them but when the prescription was finished the dizziness returned this time even worse than before.
Dr. Bo has been my chiropractor for many years and has helped me with many back and neck problems. On this particular day, I was shopping and I went to turn and I felt like I was going to pass out, it took all I had to get myself home from the store, my neck had become so stiff I could not even move it. I called Dr. Bo, explained to her what was going on. She said come on in, but have someone drive me. I waited for my husband, by the time he got home I was really not feeling right at all…We get to Dr. Bo’s office she and I talked for a while she was very concerned that I might be having a medical issue rather than just pain in my neck. She took my blood pressure etc. and all was well. She gave me some therapy and then adjusted my neck and all of a sudden the dizziness was gone….I actually had circulation flowing again to the top of my head and believe it or not even my ear did not hurt anymore.
Thank you Dr. Bo for all you do!"

*"I was having upper back and shoulder pain when I went looking for a local chiropractor. I found Dr. Bo through my insurance company’s list of Chiropractors. My symptoms were a combination of carpal tunnel and tension and stress from losing my job. The stress was affecting me for a few months. The carpal tunnel was with me for about a year. I was losing sleep and very uncomfortable. Dr. Bo has been very helpful in getting me back to normal. She always tells me how the adjustments will help me. I’ve been seeing Dr. Bo since 1998 and I will continue as long as I can. I usually see Dr. Bo before I seek medical care for my aches and pains. She always resolves the problem! I feel wonderful when she completes my care."
Emily M.
*"I came to see Dr. Janczar after talking to her mother. Migraines, neck and back pain almost stopped my life. My primary care doctor prescribed medication for the migraines and other pain, but what really helped was chiropractic care and massage therapy. Dr. Janczar and the staff are very supportive and helpful. Dr. Bo also gave me helpful suggestions for activities and exercises I could do at home to promote improvement. My condition has improved steadily throughout treatment. I now very seldom get migraines or pain in the neck or back.
Life is easier to bear!"
Patricia C.
*"My apprehension to being adjusted came with a sigh of relief after meeting Dr. Janczar. I explained my back discomfort and Dr. Janczar thoroughly went over the treatment plan and made sure I was well educated and comfortable before we began treatment. I never have a concern now to receive chiropractic care. Dr Bo is very considerate to your medical needs."

*"The Doctor was fast and effective when it came to helping me with a pinched nerve I had in my lower back. She helped me regain the ability to sit normal again. She even worked on my neck and spine, which felt amazing! I already scheduled to see her again and continue with this much needed TLC."
