Lower Back Pain Relief

Lower back pain is one of the most common reasons people come to see Dr. Duren. It can be a sharp pain that hits you when you bend over. Or a dull ache that’s been building for weeks. Either way, it makes everything harder—sitting at your desk, picking up groceries, playing with your kids, even getting a good night’s sleep.
Here’s what’s often happening: when your lower back is out of alignment, it affects how your spine supports your body. Your muscles have to work harder to compensate. This creates tension, which creates more misalignment, which creates more pain. It’s a cycle. Chiropractic care breaks that cycle by restoring proper spinal alignment. When your spine is aligned correctly, your muscles don’t have to overwork, and your body can function the way it’s supposed to. Through gentle adjustments, soft tissue work, and personalized treatment plans, Dr. Duren helps reduce the pain and improve your mobility so you can move freely again.

Understanding what’s happening
Dr. Duren doesn’t just treat the pain. She takes time to understand what’s happening in your body. Is it spinal misalignment affecting how your back supports you? Muscle tension from overcompensation? A disc issue? Something else? She examines your spine, checks how you move, and listens to your story. This helps her understand what’s going on so she can help your body heal naturally, not just mask the symptoms.

This might include adjustments, soft tissue work, exercises, or a combination—whatever your body needs.
