Why Your Past Treatments Didn’t Work — And What Makes Ours Different One of the most important parts of my job isn’t cracking backs or assigning rehab exercises. It’s listening and teaching. Because understanding your story — what you’ve been through, what matters most to you, and what hasn’t worked in the past — is the key to getting results. Why do we care so much about your story? Because pain is personal. And rehab has to be too. Most of the people who walk through our doors aren’t just dealing with pain… They’re missing out on the life they want. - Picking up their kids or grandkids - Hitting a workout without fear - Saying "yes" to that ski trip or run club invite - Or just getting through a workday without shifting in their chair every 10 minutes They’ve tried to fix it. They’ve seen other chiropractors, physical therapists, massage therapists. They’ve taken medications. Watched YouTube videos. Maybe even tried just ignoring it. And that’s where I start hearing the stories... Here are a few of the most common — and frankly frustrating — things I hear from new patients about their past care: “They never asked me what I did before I got hurt.” If a provider doesn’t understand what you want to get back to doing — they’re just guessing. Rehab isn’t a generic routine. Your care should be based on your goals, your body, and your story. “He told me to take Advil and watch YouTube.” That’s not care. That’s dismissing someone who’s in real pain. One patient told me this happened during a paid consultation. Imagine how that felt. “I only saw my chiropractor for 3 minutes.” Heat pack. STIM machine. Quick adjustment. Done. Does it feel good temporarily? Maybe. Does it fix the actual cause of your pain? Not even close. Sound familiar? If any of these stories hit home, you’re not alone. And more importantly — you’re not stuck. Because now you know what hasn’t worked. And that brings us one step closer to what will.

Why Does My Back Keep Hurting? Fixing the Root Cause for Good Back pain is one of the most common problems people deal with. You might feel better after stretching, resting, or getting an adjustment, but then the pain comes back again. Why does this happen? Many treatments focus on short-term relief instead of fixing the real reason for the pain. At Back in Action Chiropractic, we take the time to find the root cause so you don’t have to deal with the same problem over and over again. What Causes Back Pain? Back pain isn’t just about your back. It often happens because something else in your body isn’t working the way it should. Here are some of the most common reasons people have back pain: - Weak Core Muscles – Your core supports your spine. If it’s not strong enough, your lower back has to work harder, which can lead to pain. - Poor Movement Habits – The way you walk, sit, or even pick things up can put extra stress on your back. - Tight Hips or Upper Back – If your hips or upper back don’t move well, your lower back has to do extra work, which can cause discomfort. - Old Injuries – Ankle, knee, or hip injuries can change how you move, putting strain on your back over time. A Different Approach to Treatment At Back in Action Chiropractic, we don’t just look at where it hurts—we figure out **why** it hurts. Instead of quick fixes, we create a plan that actually solves the problem. Here’s what makes our approach different: - We take the time to figure out the real cause of your pain . Instead of guessing, we do a full assessment to understand how your body moves. - We treat the whole body, not just the symptoms. If your back pain is caused by weak core muscles or tight hips, we’ll make sure to address those areas too. - We make a plan to keep the pain from coming back. We don’t want you to rely on constant treatments—we want to fix the problem so you can stay pain-free. Are You Ready to Get Rid of Back Pain for Good? If your back pain keeps coming back, it’s time to try something new. Instead of just treating the pain, let’s fix the root cause so you can move and feel better long-term.
