Back adjustment, also known as spinal manipulation, involves manual manipulation of the spine to correct misalignments (subluxations) in the vertebrae. This technique is commonly used by physiotherapists to alleviate back pain, improve spinal function, and restore mobility.
Back adjustment is essential for individuals experiencing back pain, stiffness, or limited mobility due to spinal misalignments. It helps relieve pressure on nerves, reduce muscle tension, and improve overall spinal health.
Yes, when performed by a qualified physiotherapist, back adjustments are generally safe and effective.
The number of sessions varies based on individual needs and the severity of the condition. Some people experience relief after just a few sessions, while others may require ongoing care.
It's common to hear popping or cracking sounds during the adjustment, which is caused by gas bubbles releasing from the joints. This is normal and not usually a cause for concern.
While rare, some risks include temporary soreness, muscle stiffness, or in rare cases, injury to the spine or nerves. Your physiotherapist will discuss any potential risks before treatment.
Back adjustment is generally safe for most individuals, but it may not be suitable for those with certain medical conditions or spinal issues. Your physiotherapist will assess your condition and medical history to determine if it's the right treatment for you.
