What causes back pain in Females?
Back pain in women is usually associated with:
Pregnancy: back pain can be an early sign of pregnancy and it can last throughout the pregnancy. Floatation tank therapy and remedial massages can help with back pain management throughout the pregnancy.
During period: women can experience lower back pain – and sometimes severe lower back pain – during menstruation.
After delivery: postnatal back pain is also common in women. It can sometimes be caused by lifting children incorrectly.
Endometriosis: pain related to endometriosis can sometimes be confused with back pain. It can occur because the endometrial cells can stick to your lower back. The pain will be felt deep in your body, and not closer to the surface like regular back pain.
Can Chiropractors Help with Back Pain?
Chiropractic therapy is one of the best treatments for back pain. Chiropractors use localised and specific manual therapies that are highly effective for the treatment of back pain, including pregnancy-related back pain issues. A chiropractor will also help you manage your back pain by creating an effective treatment plan and exercise routine that will shorten your recovery time.
