Gresham OR, 18-JULY-2014 - Great Health Chiropractic and Dr. Jeffrey Bratten, D. C., are pleased to announce women who experience back pain can be assured of relief by visiting the chiropractic office locally. The Gresham chiropractor offers methods that relieve pain in all parts of the back. The exact therapy will depend upon the location, severity and history of the pain.

According to Dr. Jeffrey Bratten DC, speaking to an interviewer, "Although both men and women suffer from back pain, they tend to be from different causes. Women's back pain is often pregnancy related. When this is the reason, we have therapeutic methods that are effective without being unsafe for the mother or the baby. For general back pain not related to pregnancy, we also have a menu of therapy techniques."

He continues, "Back pain during pregnancy is common. The woman's center of gravity changes as the pregnancy develops. Not only is there additional weight in the abdominal area, but the spine is curved dramatically to offset the weight. Shoulders may be carried in an unnatural position, which further increases pain in the back. Women who come to my office for help will be checked to see what is causing back pain. Once that information is compiled, I can recommend effective therapy to alleviate the pain and to improve posture."

Specific therapy might include gentle massage, spinal adjustments and ultrasound, depending upon the needs of the patient. If the woman is pregnant, only procedures which are safe for both mother and baby are utilized. Other elements which might be a part of therapy for back pain are nutrition, posture training and exercises to strengthen supportive tissue.
