DOES THIS SOUND FAMILIAR?
You've tried to wait it out. It hasn't worked.
You’ve already tried stretching, ice, heat, painkillers, or just resting it. Maybe you even thought it would eventually go away. The pain fades a little, then comes right back because none of that addresses what's actually causing it.
Mornings are the worst
Getting out of bed takes real effort, and it's a few minutes before your back "loosens up" enough to move normally.
A desk job that isn't helping
Hours of sitting have left your lower back tight, achy, and stiff by the end of every workday.
Pain that shoots down your leg
A sharp, electric feeling from your lower back down through your hip or leg often worse when sitting.
OUR NERVOUS-SYSTEM-FIRST APPROACH
Rest and painkillers manage pain. They don't fix what's causing it.
At East Nashville Chiropractic, our goal isn't just to temporarily reduce pain. We begin with a detailed evaluation to understand what's contributing to your symptoms so we can build a treatment plan specific to you.
We look at back pain as a signal that there is an interference disrupting communication between your brain and body. Cover that signal up with medication, and the disconnect is still there once it wears off. Utilizing applied kinesiology, we identify areas contributing to your symptoms and tailor your care accordingly.
That's why our care follows three phases: correcting what's contributing to the pain now, rebuilding the communication pathways so it doesn't just come back, then keeping you feeling like yourself long-term.
Our 3-phase approach to your back pain
Acute Care — First we need to correct the underlying problem as to why you feel this way. Specific adjustments correct the subluxation driving your pain. Subluxations are normally the cause of the disconnect between the communication of your brain & body. Healthy spine = healthy body.
Corrective Care — Now that we know what's going on, we will help support the body with gentle yet effective chiropractic adjustments. Gentle, ongoing adjustments rebuild the communication between your spine and nervous system.
Wellness Care — We are on our way to transitioning from surviving to thriving! You're no longer just surviving the day; your body is functioning the way it should.
A team that looks for the root cause, not just the symptom.

-
The timeframe for seeing results can vary depending on your condition, its severity, and how long you've had it. Some patients feel immediate relief after their first visit, while others may need several treatments before noticing significant improvements. Your chiropractor will discuss expected outcomes during your initial consultation.
-
Most chiropractic adjustments are not painful. Some patients might experience mild soreness after treatment, similar to what you might feel after exercise, but this typically subsides quickly.
-
We provide patient centered care at a cash rate. This allows us to give care that is based on your individual needs- not on what an insurance company deems medically necessary.
