Common Questions About Back Pain Relief in West Omaha Kosak Chiropractic and Acupuncture in West Omaha

Back pain is the number one issue requiring treatment from our West Omaha chiropractor, Dr. Kosak. It is typically related to injury or misalignment and can take the form of low back pain, mid back pain or upper back pain. Fortunately, there is a non-invasive chiropractic treatment for most types of back pain.

The following are some of the most frequently asked questions Dr. Kosak in West Omaha, NE receives about chiropractic care for upper, middle, and lower back pain relief.

What is Causing My Back Pain?

Lower, middle and upper back pain can have a range of causes, including:

• Overuse injury

• Auto accident

• Work injury 

• Poor posture

• Sports injury

• Improper ergonomics

• Arthritis

How Exactly Does Chiropractic Care Help to Relieve Back Pain?

The basis of chiropractic care is correcting misalignments and imbalances in the musculoskeletal system. Once these issues are corrected, healing can occur more rapidly. Some of the treatments utilized by our West Omaha chiropractor Kosak Chiropractic and Acupuncture include:

• Manual manipulation of the spine

• Instrument-based chiropractic treatments

• Spinal decompression treatment

• Address bulging or herniated discs

• Reduce pressure on the spinal cord

What Happens Within a Back Injury to Cause Back Pain?

Back pain is caused by a sprain or strain to one or more of the back muscles. Spinal misalignment from an injury, overuse or poor ergonomics can also cause discomfort and pain. Problems with the spinal discs in the form of a bulging disc, herniated disc or degenerative disc disease can also be at the root of back pain.
