Seniors with Back Pain: Chiropractic Can Offer a Gentle and Long-Term Solution

As we age, those everyday aches—especially in the lower back—can start to linger a little longer. Whether it’s due to arthritis, spinal degeneration, or decades of wear and tear, back pain can greatly impact your ability to stay active and independent.
Here’s the good news:
Chiropractic care offers a safe, gentle, and drug-free approach to managing back pain—without the need for medications or invasive procedures.
Why Does Back Pain Become More Common with Age?
The spine naturally changes over time. Common age-related factors include:
- Decreased disc height and spinal flexibility
- Joint degeneration
- Osteoporosis or arthritis
- Poor posture and reduced mobility
These issues can lead to stiffness, discomfort, and even trouble sleeping or moving around. That’s where chiropractic care steps in—with a natural, tailored solution.
How Chiropractic Helps Support Healthy Aging
At Stinson Chiropractic Center, we understand the unique needs of seniors. That’s why our chiropractic care is designed to be gentle, effective, and completely personalized. Our treatments can help:
- Restore spinal alignment and mobility
- Relieve pressure on nerves
- Reduce inflammation and tension
- Improve balance and coordination
Even small adjustments can make a big difference in your daily comfort and overall well-being.
Is Chiropractic Care Safe for Seniors?
Yes—completely. We use techniques that are both effective and senior-friendly, such as:
- Activator Method – a handheld tool for precise, low-force adjustments
- Stretching and soft tissue therapy
- Custom exercises to improve mobility and posture
Your care always starts with a full assessment and a conversation about your goals, so we can tailor a plan that’s just right for you.
