Back pain can affect the way you work, train, sleep, move, and enjoy everyday life. Alpha Performance & Wellness takes a personalized approach to understanding your movement, identifying contributing factors, and developing care around your individual needs and goals.
Our approach combines chiropractic care with movement, mobility, soft-tissue, recovery, and performance-focused strategies when clinically appropriate.
What Is Back Pain?
Back pain is discomfort, stiffness, aching, or pain affecting the muscles, joints, or other structures of the back. It may develop gradually over time or occur after an injury, repetitive activity, prolonged sitting, lifting, training, or other physical demands.
Back pain can vary considerably between individuals. It may be:
- •Localized to one area
- •Intermittent or come-and-go
- •Persistent and ongoing
- •Related to specific movements
- •Associated with stiffness
- •Accompanied by reduced mobility
Because back pain can have many different contributing factors, this page is educational and is not a diagnosis. A professional evaluation can help determine what factors may be contributing to your discomfort.
Common Back Pain Symptoms
Symptoms alone do not determine the underlying cause. A professional evaluation can help determine what factors may be contributing to your discomfort.
What Can Contribute to Back Pain?
Back pain may have many contributing factors, and it is rarely the result of a single isolated issue. Several of the following may play a role:
Chiropractic care may not be appropriate for every possible cause of back pain. An evaluation helps determine what care, if any, may be suitable for your situation.
When Should You Have Back Pain Evaluated?
Persistent, recurring, worsening, or activity-limiting back pain may warrant professional evaluation. If discomfort is interfering with how you move, work, train, or sleep, it may be time to have it assessed.
Seek urgent medical attention for:
- •Severe back pain following significant trauma or injury
- •New bowel or bladder problems
- •Progressive weakness or numbness in the legs
- •Fever associated with significant back pain
- •Other potentially serious symptoms
If you are experiencing any of the above, please seek appropriate urgent or emergency medical care rather than waiting for an appointment.
Can Chiropractic Care Help With Back Pain?
Chiropractic care may be one component of a conservative care plan for certain types of back pain. The appropriate approach depends on the individual, their symptoms, health history, evaluation findings, goals, and clinical appropriateness.
At Alpha Performance & Wellness, care is personalized rather than standardized. After understanding your situation and completing an evaluation, your provider can discuss whether chiropractic care may be appropriate for you and what options might be considered.

Back Pain Chiropractic FAQs
What causes back pain?
Back pain can have many contributing factors, including repetitive movement, lifting, training, prolonged sitting, work demands, mobility limitations, muscle tension, previous injuries, and changes in activity level. It is rarely the result of a single isolated issue, and the contributing factors can vary considerably between individuals.
When should I see a chiropractor for back pain?
Persistent, recurring, worsening, or activity-limiting back pain may warrant professional evaluation. If discomfort is interfering with how you move, work, train, or sleep, an evaluation can help determine what factors may be contributing and what care options may be appropriate. For severe symptoms following trauma, new bowel or bladder problems, progressive weakness or numbness, or fever with significant back pain, seek urgent medical attention.

No. Chiropractic care may be one component of a conservative care plan for certain types of back pain, but it is not appropriate for every cause or every individual. The right approach depends on your symptoms, health history, evaluation findings, goals, and clinical appropriateness. An evaluation helps determine what care, if any, may be suitable for you.

Your first visit starts with a conversation about your symptoms, history, activity, and goals, followed by a comprehensive evaluation. We then discuss findings and personalized recommendations. Treatment may or may not occur on the first visit depending on what is clinically appropriate for you.
Does Alpha offer services besides chiropractic adjustments?
Yes. In addition to chiropractic care, Alpha Performance & Wellness offers soft tissue mobilization, medical cupping, and a combined Adjustment, Cupping & Stretch session. Depending on your evaluation and clinical needs, one or more of these services may be considered as part of your care.
