Back Pain – Is It Sacroiliac Joint Dysfunction?
March 2nd, 2023
Posted in: Back Pain
Sacroiliac joint dysfunction is a common condition that affects many people, causing low back and leg pain. The sacroiliac joint is the joint that connects the sacrum (the triangular bone at the base of the spine) to the pelvis. Dysfunction of this joint can cause pain, inflammation, and discomfort in the low back, hips, and legs. Mind and Body Chiropractic, the Gold Coast’s leading chiropractic clinic, effectively treats sacroiliac joint dysfunction, helping patients overcome pain and discomfort and achieve optimal comfort and health.
Common symptoms of sacroiliac joint dysfunction include low back pain, hip pain, and pain or discomfort in the legs. Other symptoms may include stiffness or a feeling of restriction in the low back or hips, pain that worsens with standing or walking, and pain that improves with rest. Many people also experience muscle spasms, which can be painful and debilitating.
At Mind and Body Chiropractic, our chiropractors use various techniques to treat sacroiliac joint dysfunction. These may include spinal adjustments, soft tissue massage, and corrective exercises. By addressing the underlying causes of the dysfunction and helping to restore proper alignment and function to the sacroiliac joint, our chiropractor can help to relieve pain, reduce inflammation, and improve overall function and mobility.
Our chiropractors also collaborate with patients to develop customized treatment plans that address their unique needs and goals. We believe in a holistic approach to care that focuses on treating the whole person, not just the symptoms of their condition, by addressing the underlying causes of their pain and discomfort.
If you are experiencing low back or leg pain, seeking treatment as soon as possible is essential. Delaying treatment can lead to worsening symptoms and may even result in long-term damage to the spine and other structures of the body.
