Top Causes of Neck, Back, and Sciatic Pain in Vacaville

One of the reasons why many people struggle with back pain in Vacaville and its many variations is that most of the treatments that doctors perform don't address the root cause of the pain.

Inflicted Back Pain in Vacaville

These common causes continue to inflict back pain if it's not the main target of the treatment. And if that happens, then you will surely experience recurring pain. It is best that you know some of them so that you will at least have an idea of how you want to get yourself treated.

1. Excessive stress / Negative beliefs - Some people may doubt this one, but excess stress and negative beliefs keep most people in pain.

   Many people turn to physical treatments because they get some relief out of them. However, this pain relief is not complete or long-lasting, which means that it could come back at any moment. This process keeps the mind from making the body heal completely.

2. Muscle imbalances - Muscle imbalances can create dysfunctions. This puts the muscles in your body out of alignment and your body continues to function like this until it breaks down.

   This is known to be the biggest "physical" cause of back-related conditions and pain. Fortunately, it is easy to identify and correct muscle imbalances in your body. You just have to figure out the imbalances you have while also formulating the proper combination of corrective stretches and exercises.

3. Spinal compression/Torsion - This is another physical cause of back-related conditions and pain. Muscle imbalances can put your spine out of alignment and can cause increased pressure on the discs.

   It becomes worse with some torsion (twisting of the spine). This combination can be deadly because it can wreak havoc on the discs, thus causing bulging or herniation.

   The good news is that discs can heal while also undoing or reducing the excessive compression and torsion by treating the muscle imbalances and decompressing the spine. With that, you can go to your nearest chiropractic clinic to get yourself a spinal decompression treatment that is ideal for this kind of condition.

4. Trigger points - It is mostly responsible for the undiagnosed pain that people experience. These trigger points are a major factor for causing neck, back, and sciatic pain.

   Trigger points are complex and there are many things that are responsible for its development. Additionally, they can also cause pain in other parts of the body.

5. Nutritional imbalances - What you eat can put or keep you out of pain. There are certain foods that can create inflammation, but imbalances in minerals and nutrients are a major factor.

   For example, having too much calcium and not enough magnesium can cause calcification. There are many other types of imbalances, so you need to be aware of them. It is best that you avoid these foods in the meantime:

   • Dairy
   • Sugar
   • Wheat
   • Artificial colors/flavors

Make sure to get enough of these foods/nutrients:

• • Antioxidants
  • Spices
  • Vitamin-D
  • Omega-3 Fatty Acids
