Back Pain Treatment Specialist in Houston, TX

The best treatment for lower back pain largely depends on the cause of your lower back pain! The roots of lower or lumbar back pain are very diverse, including conditions such as sciatica, muscle strains from repetitive movements, overuse, or poor posture, herniated discs, spinal stenosis, spondylitis, scoliosis, fibromyalgia, arthritis, and more. Depending on the specific cause of your back pain, the best treatment for you might include one or more of the following:

– Acupuncture
– Chiropractic care, or spinal manipulation
– Injections, such as facet joint injections, corticosteroid injections, or platelet-rich plasma (PRP) injections
– Massage therapy
– Medication
– Physical therapy
– Spinal decompression therapy
– Surgery (as a last resort)

At InovoSpine, we have the right medical professionals that can help determine the cause of your lower back pain, find the best therapy for you, and carry out that treatment plan.

While general physicians can help with mild back pain by prescribing medication, providing you with exercise routines, and referring you to specialists, you will likely benefit most from seeing someone specializing in the treatment of back pain. Medical professionals that specialize in the treatment of chronic back pain include chiropractors, physical therapists, orthopedists, osteopathic physicians, or physiatrists. At InovoSpine, we have chiropractors, physical therapists, massage therapists, and functional medicine doctors on staff to help you with your back pain.

While the beneficial extent of physical therapy for back pain will depend on your specific condition and its relative severity, physical therapy will most likely help your back pain in one way or another. There are usually two components to physical therapy for back pain, namely, pain management and strengthening exercises. These two components are called passive and active physical therapy. With passive physical therapy, the goal is to reduce the patient’s pain to a manageable level using heat or ice packs, massage therapy, ultrasound therapy, electrical stimulation, and other techniques. On the other hand, active physical therapy consists of range-of-motion exercises, stretching, strengthening exercises, low-impact aerobic conditioning, aquatic therapy, and more. An individual’s physical therapy treatment plan will depend on the individual’s physical fitness, the severity of their condition, and functional mobility.
