On average, 65 million people in the United States suffer from back pain. The causes of this pain differ from person to person, and include auto accidents and muscle strain, but they all cause enough discomfort to make back pain the second most common reason people seek out medical care.

At American Health Chiropractic in Milford, OH, the team understands how debilitating living with back pain can be. They're dedicated to getting to the root of the problem and to providing treatments that will permanently reduce your pain and restore your well-being without using drugs. Some of these treatments include:

• Spinal Manipulation (Adjustments): Spinal manipulation, commonly known as a chiropractic adjustment, involves slightly moving the spine to realign vertebrae that were moved out of place and to allow the proper flow of the nerves throughout the body. Vertebrae can shift their positions for a number of reasons, including car accidents, minor falls, and everyday bending and lifting.
• Chiropractic Massage: This type of massage aids in removing toxins that have built up in the muscles, increases circulation, and increases muscle and connective tissue flexibility.
• Ultrasound Therapy: Unlike the ultrasound used to see inside the body, ultrasound therapy creates small sound waves that vibrate and massage muscles and soft tissue. Ultrasound therapy can also employ heat to help relax tight muscles.
