Chiropractic Treatment for Upper Back Pain in Alexandria, VA

Upper back pain responds well to chiropractic treatment. Patients with upper back pain pain often experience:

• Tight, stiff muscles in the upper back, neck, and shoulders
• Dull, burning, or sharp pain in the affected area
• Weakness in the legs and arms
• Numbness and tingling in the extremities, chest, and abdomen

Knowing why you’re experiencing upper back pain lets us develop a personalized treatment plan. Our chiropractors can perform spinal manipulations to realign your spine and clear your nervous system, easing upper back pain. We may ask you to do stretches and exercises at home to improve posture and prevent your condition from worsening between appointments.
