Lower back pain refers to discomfort felt in the lumbar region of the spine. It can be acute (short-term) or chronic (ongoing), and may worsen with movement, prolonged sitting, or certain activities like bending or lifting.

Chiropractic care focuses on natural, drug-free methods to alleviate lower back pain.
We use spinal adjustments, manual therapies, and mobilisation techniques to correct misalignments, relieve pressure on nerves, and improve your spine’s function.
Our personalised treatment plans may also include tailored exercises, stretches, and lifestyle advice to support long-term recovery and prevent future pain.
Many patients experience significant relief and improved mobility through regular chiropractic care. In fact, our patient outcome surveys to date show an average 44% improvement in lower back pain across hundreds of cases — a result supported by research from a 2024 randomised controlled trial published in The Journal of Pain, which found that spinal manipulative therapy significantly reduced chronic primary low back pain, segmental mechanical hyperalgesia, and pain catastrophising.
Safe, Non-Invasive Relief
Chiropractic care offers a drug-free, non-surgical approach to relieving lower back pain. Gentle, high-speed spinal adjustments help restore movement and reduce pain — without the risks of medication or invasive treatments.
Fixing the Root Cause
Rather than masking symptoms, we focus on the underlying issue, such as spinal misalignments or joint dysfunction. This delivers more effective, long-lasting results.
Personalised Treatment Plans
Every spine is different. After a full assessment, we create a tailored care plan that targets your specific cause of back pain and supports your recovery goals.
Move Better, Feel Better
Chiropractic care helps improve mobility and flexibility by restoring proper alignment and reducing tension. You’ll move more freely and feel more in control of your body.
A Whole-Body Approach
We don’t just treat the spine. Your care may include muscle therapy, stretches, rehab exercises, and lifestyle advice to support full recovery and prevent future flare-ups.
