Lake Worth Chiropractic Care Helps Manage Low Back Pain Caused by Sciatica

LAKE WORTH, FL, Mar 13, 2012 (MARKETWIRE via COMTEX) -- Dr. Jack Cacic

Chiropractic in Lake Worth, FL is using chiropractic care to help patients

struggling with low back pain, hip pain, and other chronic pain. According

to Dr. Cacic, the practice's chiropractor, a herniated or compressed disc

can put pressure on nearby nerves, causing chronic pain. Spinal adjustments

can help restore proper alignment to the body, relieving pressure on the

nerves. The wellness center offers spinal adjustments, massage therapy, and

physical therapy for natural pain management. The practice serves the Palm

Springs, West Palm Beach, Boynton Beach, Lantana and Green Acres

communities.

Lake Worth chiropractor Dr. Jack Cacic announced his success treating

chronic low back pain, hip pain and sciatica using non-invasive spinal

adjustments. These treatments focus on correcting the underlying cause for

pain, providing long-term relief.

" Chiropractic care is different from traditional medical care, " said Dr.

Cacic. " While medication can provide pain relief, drugs work by 'covering

up' pain, rather than correcting the underlying cause. Chiropractic care is

different. My goal is to identify and correct the underlying cause for a

patient's pain, such as a herniated disc. "

Natural wear and tear, an auto accident injury or personal injury can all

cause a misalignment of the musculoskeletal system. For example, the

traumatic force of an auto accident can force the spine beyond its normal

range of motion, causing a disc to slip out of place. If the disc

compresses nearby nerves, patients will experience chronic pain.

Sciatica occurs when a herniated or compressed disc puts pressure on the

sciatic nerve in the lower back. This pressure can cause a radiating pain

sensation in the legs, lower back and buttocks -- preventing patients from

living an active life. As long as the disc continues to compress the

sciatic nerve, patients will experience pain.

" Patients with chronic back pain or hip pain do not have to compromise

their active lifestyle, " said Dr. Cacic. " Thanks to advancements in

chiropractic adjustments, a chiropractor can help restore alignment to the

body and relieve pressure on the nerves. Whether this is a new or on-going

chronic condition, it is never too late to get healthy! "

According to Dr. Cacic, chiropractic adjustments work by creating space in

the spine. When the spine is compressed after an injury, there is not

enough space for the vertebrae and discs to be aligned. Spinal adjustments,

however, create new space in the spine, allowing the compressed disc to

return to its proper position and no longer compress the sciatic nerve.

" Chiropractic adjustments work because they focus on the underlying cause

for an injury, rather than simple managing the symptoms, " said Dr. Cacic.

" Not only do adjustments provide immediate pain relief, but by correcting

the underlying problem, they ensure patients can live an active life. "

The practice also offers massage therapy and *physical therapy treatments*.

These complementary therapies are designed to enhance pain relief and speed

internal healing. Massage therapy, for example, stimulates the flow of

oxygenated blood, which studies show helps to flush out waste from the

muscles. Physical therapy may also help restore movement, flexibility and

coordination to the body.
