LOWER BACK PAIN - CONDITIONS WE TREAT

Lower back conditions we commonly treat at the KiRO Clinic

  • Lumbar disc bulges and herniations

  • Chronic or acute mechanical low back pain

  • Sciatica and lumbar radiculopathy

  • Facet joint dysfunction

  • Spinal joint restrictions

  • Scoliosis-related back pain

  • Postural or sedentary-related discomfort

  • Recurrent episodes of “locking” or “stiffness”

Disc injuries (bulges, herniations, degeneration)

Disc problems can compress spinal nerves and lead to:

  • Deep, central lower back pain

  • Radiating pain into the glutes or legs (sciatica)

  • Pain worse with sitting or bending forward

  • Muscle spasms and inflammation

“A 2022 PubMed systematic review concluded that spinal manipulation was effective in reducing pain and disability in patients with lumbar disc herniation and radiculopathy”1.

Sciatica and nerve pain

When nerves are irritated or compressed, you may feel:

  • Sharp, shooting pain down the leg

  • Tingling, numbness, or weakness

  • Symptoms aggravated by coughing, sitting, or standing

evaluation

Pain with bending forward

Often caused by:

  • Lumbar disc pressure or bulging

  • Tight hamstrings or hip flexors

  • Core weakness or poor motor control

Pain with bending backwards

Common causes include:

  • Facet joint irritation

  • Lumbar instability or spondylolysis

  • Tight lumbar extensors and hip impingement

  • Tight hip flexors

  • Weak core and glutes

  • Lower cross postural syndrome

evaluation

Facet Joint Pain and Restrictions

These are small joints at the back of the spine that can become inflamed or stiff.

Symptoms include:

  • Localised ache

  • Pain with twisting or extension

  • Stiffness first thing in the morning or after sitting

Mechanical & postural low back pain

Often related to:

  • Muscular imbalance or weakness

  • Sedentary lifestyle and desk posture

  • Poor movement patterns or lifting technique

How the KiRO Clinic
lower back pain?

Our approach at the KiRO Clinic combines expert chiropractic care with movement-specific rehabilitation to ensure a
long-term solution to shoulder dysfunction—not just symptom relief.

Comprehensive assessment
of spinal and functional biomechanics

We start with a detailed evaluation that includes:

  • Orthopaedic and neurological testing

  • Postural and movement analysis

  • Functional strength and flexibility screening

  • Imaging referral (MRI or X-ray) if clinically appropriate

Our goal is to identify the root cause - not just chase the pain, to ensure your results last for the future.

Chiropractic adjustments
and manual therapy

Our treatments target the precise dysfunction affecting your spine, including:

  • Spinal adjustments to restore motion and reduce pressure

  • Joint mobilisations to free up restricted segments

  • Myofascial release for the surrounding musculature

  • Dry Needling to relax tight muscles

  • Neural mobilisation techniques for sciatica and nerve pain

“According to a 2006 retrospective case series published on PubMed pregnant women experiencing low back pain who underwent chiropractic spinal manipulation. The study found that 94.1% of the participants reported clinically significant improvement in pain levels. Importantly, no adverse effects were reported, suggesting that chiropractic care may be a safe and effective option for managing low back pain during pregnancy1.

Functional rehabilitation and core retraining

Once acute pain settles, we focus on rebuilding your back through:

  • Core stability training (especially transverse
    abdominis and multifidus)

  • Glute and hip strengthening to support spinal mechanics

  • Dynamic mobility drills for the hips and thoracic spine

  • Movement retraining for lifting, squatting, and walking

  • Improved load management and tolerance

“Chiropractic mobilisation and core retraining have shown clinical benefits in addressing lumbar extension-based back pain”2.
