Treatment
Back Pain
Back pain has a way of touching everything you do. We focus on the cause so you can bend, lift, and move through your day with less of it.
Back pain can stem from disc problems, joint restriction, muscle strain, or nerve compression. It ranges from a dull ache to sharp, limiting pain. Our approach is conservative and non-surgical, aimed at the underlying problem.
Your exam looks at your spine, posture, and movement. From there, care may combine spinal decompression, adjustments, soft-tissue therapy, and movement work to relieve pressure and rebuild support. You move through clear stages.
Relieving pressure and restoring healthy movement helps reduce pain and keeps the back more resilient. Because the spine anchors the whole kinetic chain, easing back trouble often helps the hips and knees too. Dr. Sarah Scharf builds care around lasting change.
