Step 2: Chiropractic
Flexion distraction is a chiropractic technique used to help alleviate low back pain. The technique involves the use of a specialized table that allows the chiropractor to gently stretch and decompress the spine. This helps to alleviate pressure on the discs, joints and nerves in the lower back, which can be a common source of pain. The table also allows the chiropractor to apply a gentle distraction force to the affected area, which can help to separate the joints and create more space for the nerves. This can help to reduce inflammation and improve the overall function of the lower back. Flexion distraction is often used in conjunction with other chiropractic techniques, such as manual adjustments, to provide a comprehensive approach to managing low back pain.
Step 3: Bracing

Step 4: Rehabilitation
The low back, or lumbar spine, is a common area of pain and injury. Strengthening the muscles in this area can help to support the spine and reduce the risk of further injury. When undergoing chiropractic care, it is often recommended to strengthen the low back muscles as part of a comprehensive treatment plan to improve spinal alignment and function. This can help to improve flexibility and mobility, reduce pain, and improve overall quality of life.
Step 5: Acupuncture
Acupuncture is a traditional Chinese medicine technique that involves the insertion of thin needles into specific points on the body, called acupoints, to alleviate pain and promote healing. Acupuncture is believed to stimulate the body's natural healing response by releasing endorphins, the body's natural pain-relieving chemicals, and by increasing blood flow to the area being treated. Acupuncture is commonly used to treat low back pain, which is one of the most common types of chronic pain. According to studies, acupuncture can provide significant pain relief for low back pain, improve function and decrease the need for medication. Acupuncture is also effective in treating the underlying causes of low back pain, such as muscle tension, poor posture, and stress. It's also a holistic approach to treatment and can address underlying imbalances in the body. Acupuncture is considered as a safe and effective treatment for low back pain, with minimal side effects, and is often used as an alternative or complement to traditional medical treatments.
