Help for Middle Back Pain at Vitality Semaphore
As one of the most common conditions we see at Vitality Semaphore, middle back pain can limit your ability to stand comfortably, move freely, and get a good night’s sleep. Many people think that bad posture—whether hunching over your desk or slouching on the couch—is primarily to blame for this type of discomfort. The reality is there are some common but overlooked causes.
Our practice takes a holistic approach to identify and address the actual reasons behind your discomfort.
Common Causes of Middle Back Pain
Middle back pain can arise from several underlying issues:
Stress and Tension
Emotional stress does more than keep you up at night; it creates muscle tension and inflammation, particularly in the middle back. Chronic stress can lead to persistent discomfort and posture changes like rounded shoulders or a forward head position.
Spinal Imbalances
Misalignments in the lower back or pelvis often cause compensations higher up the spine, leading to strain in the middle back.
Stuck Joints
When spinal joints become “stuck,” they limit mobility and irritate nearby nerves, creating imbalances that make the discomfort worse.
The Effects of Sedentary Lifestyles
If your middle back pain stems from sitting for extended periods, the lack of movement can further aggravate the problem. Sitting for long periods restricts circulation, increases stiffness, and places unnecessary stress on your spine. Incorporating simple movements, like shoulder rolls or standing breaks, can make a big difference.
How Chiropractic Care May Help
We don’t offer quick fixes at our practice. To find lasting relief, it’s essential to address the root causes, not just the symptoms. Chiropractic care offers a valuable, non-invasive solution by restoring spinal alignment, improving mobility, and relieving nerve irritation. By offering personalised assessments, we’ll identify the unique factors contributing to your pain and then create a care plan tailored to you.
