Ways a Chiropractor in Bowie Helps with Back Pain

A chiropractor in Bowie helps with back pain by identifying the underlying cause of your discomfort and then developing a strategy to help with the symptoms. We may recommend spinal adjustments to improve the function of your spine and encourage healing. We also provide decompression therapy to reduce pressure on the nerves in your upper back that may contribute to your pain. 

When the discomfort stems from poor posture, we provide assistance in the process of improving your posture. We may suggest stretches or exercises that improve the strength and flexibility of your back to help with the discomfort.
