You don’t need to be moving heavy boxes or working on a construction site to feel strain in your back. Long stretches at a desk, hours of driving, or leaning over devices all take their toll. Over time, these habits can place significant pressure on the spine, irritate nerves, and cause stiffness or restricted movement. Even stress and lack of physical activity can play a role in contributing to low back pain.
For some, discomfort may appear after a weekend spent jogging or biking at Boulevard Lake Park, while for others it begins after long hours at a desk in the Port Arthur business district.
How Chiropractic Care May Help
At Santin Chiropractic, care begins with a detailed look at posture, mobility, and the specific sources of discomfort. One of our chiropractors may recommend adjustments combined with targeted stretches, soft tissue techniques, or lifestyle suggestions for home. The aim is not only to ease irritation but also to promote stronger, healthier function over the long term (which matters just as much as feeling better today).
Along with chiropractic care, our practice offers massage therapy and cold laser therapy, giving patients additional options to support their overall wellness.
Small Steps at Home
Your chiropractor may recommend gentle stretching, along with ice or moist heat, depending on your condition. Paying attention to daily habits such as standing up regularly from your desk and lifting objects with proper form can also protect your lower back from flare-ups. Regular physical activity, even something as simple as walking, may improve circulation and keep muscles flexible, which further supports spinal health.
