Chronic back pain can interfere with ordinary daily activities and significantly diminish your ability and quality of life at work and at home. The licensed chiropractors at SpineRevive Chiropractic in Burnaby provide comprehensive treatment plans that are specifically designed to alleviate back pain by addressing the originating underlying causes. Symptoms may stem from:
- Degenerative disc disease

Symptoms and Signs of Back Pain
Regardless of the condition associated with your back problem, back pain frequently manifests and extends to muscles and bones producing discomfort in the hip and leg areas. Numbness, muscle spasms, inflammation and joint dysfunction are signs of chronic back issues and can be traced to spinal misalignments experienced in specific primary areas.
Upper Back Pain
Upper back pain is often related to excessive pressure from injuries linked to muscular strain and whiplash. A SpineRevive Chiropractic chiropractor will diagnose upper back pain and design a tailored chiropractic care plan during your initial consultation at our Burnaby clinic.
Lower Back Pain
Patients experience lower back pain due to a wide range of causes- accidents, poor posture, traumatic injury and falls- which will affect the base of the spine and nearby muscles and may cause nerve compression and disc degeneration resulting in acute and chronic pain. Our Burnaby chiropractor will perform spinal adjustments to rectify improper joint movement, loosen tightened muscles, reduce inflammation and realign the body to promote natural healing of the lower back.
Middle Back Pain
Less common than upper and lower back issues — pain in the middle of the back may signify a range of spinal conditions that typically cause discomfort to the entire midsection such as spinal stenosis, spinal cord injury and scoliosis. SpineRevive Chiropractic chiropractors work closely with other health professionals to design comprehensive treatment plans that address the specifics of your condition.

Unlike certain drug therapies, effective chiropractic care for chronic back problems involves more than simply masking pain and addressing the symptoms.
