Understanding the Source
Why does back pain
happen?
Your back is a complex structure of bones, muscles, nerves, and discs — all working together to keep you moving. When something disrupts that balance, pain follows. These are the four causes we see most often at the practice.
i.
Muscle Strain
Overexertion or improper lifting can strain the muscles and ligaments that support your back. One of the most common causes — and also the most easily triggered by everyday tasks.
ii.
Spinal Misalignment
Small misalignments in the spine can irritate nearby nerves and create pain that feels out of proportion to the underlying issue — a textbook case for chiropractic care.
ii.
Herniated & Bulging Discs
When the soft tissue between vertebrae bulges or ruptures, it can press on nearby nerves — causing pain that can radiate into the hips, legs, or down one side of the body.
iv.
Postural Issues
Sitting for long periods, slouching, and constant phone-looking habits put extra stress on the spine. Often the slowest-building cause — and the most preventable.

No matter the cause, back pain is not something you have to live with. Chiropractic care offers a safe, effective way to address the root of the problem.

FAQ
Common questions
about back pain.
Patients ask us these every week. Here's what we usually say.
We're committed to providing personalized, high-quality care that helps our patients thrive — for decades, not just a few visits.
What causes back pain?
Back pain can be caused by many factors, including:
○ Muscle strain
○ Poor posture
○ Facet joint syndrome
○ Herniated or bulging discs
○ Degenerative conditions like arthritis
○ Jobs that require prolonged sitting (anything more than 30 minutes)
○ Tasks that involve repetitive bending and lifting
○ Sports injuries
○ Car accident injuries
At our Miami Beach chiropractic clinic, we focus on identifying the root cause of your pain to tailor the most effective drug-free treatment plan possible — especially for athletes, active individuals, and those recovering from traumatic injuries.
How long does back pain last?
The duration depends on the cause and severity.
○ Acute back pain may resolve within a few days to weeks.
○ Chronic back pain can last for months or longer if left untreated.
Early evaluation and treatment with a sports chiropractor like Dr. Todd Narson can help you recover faster and avoid complications that compound over time.
When should I see a chiropractor for back pain?
You should seek chiropractic care if:
○ Your pain lasts longer than a few days
○ You're having trouble standing, sitting, or sleeping
○ Your pain is affecting sports or physical activity
As a board-certified sports chiropractic physician, Dr. Narson uses proven techniques to assess, diagnose, and treat a wide range of back issues for athletes and active individuals alike.
How can chiropractic care help my back pain?
Chiropractic care helps restore spinal alignment and support your body's natural healing process. We use:
○ Gentle spinal adjustments
○ Soft tissue therapy
○ Corrective exercise
○ Sports rehabilitation techniques
This approach reduces inflammation, restores mobility, and addresses the underlying cause — not just the symptoms.
How many chiropractic sessions will I need?
The number of visits depends on your diagnosis, lifestyle, and how your body responds. Some patients feel significant relief after just a few sessions. Others — especially athletes and those with chronic conditions — benefit from ongoing care to stay in peak condition. Dr. Narson will outline a clear plan at your initial consultation, not an open-ended package.
Can I prevent back pain?
Yes — many causes of back pain may be preventable. Dr. Narson recommends:
○ Practicing good posture
○ Staying physically active
○ Avoiding prolonged sitting
○ Using proper lifting techniques
○ Visiting a chiropractor regularly for spinal maintenance and sports performance support
Preventative care is a core part of our sports chiropractic philosophy — we'd rather catch something small than treat something big.
