Back Pain? How a Chiropractor can help

What Is a Chiropractor?

A chiropractor is a licensed healthcare professional who focuses on your body’s capability to heal itself. Chiropractors treat neck pain, back pain, arthritis, certain types of headaches, injuries and more. They are spine, muscle and nervous system experts in assessing, diagnosing, treating and developing care plans to keep you moving and pain-free.

Why see a Chiropractor?

You want to live a healthy, active life and sometimes your joints, spine and muscles feel the demand. Chiropractors can diagnose and treat causes of pain, use a hands-on, non-invasive, drugless approach and correct joint motion and restore proper movement.

How Can a Chiropractor Relieve My Back Pain?

Spinal manipulation: This is the most common chiropractic treatment. It involves using hands or instruments to apply a controlled force to joints in the spine. The goal of spinal manipulation is to improve joint mobility, reduce pain, and improve function.
Manual therapies: Chiropractors may also use other manual therapies to treat back pain, such as trigger point therapy, myofascial release, and massage. These therapies work to release tension in the muscles, ligaments, and tendons around the spine.
Exercise rehabilitation: Chiropractors can also prescribe rehabilitative exercises to help patients strengthen the muscles around their spine. These exercises can help prevent further injury and relieve pain.
Lifestyle advice: Chiropractors may also provide advice on lifestyle changes that can help improve back pain, such as proper posture, ergonomics, and nutrition.

Beacon Hill Physio/Rehab is an excellent facility with excellent staff. They really take into consideration your needs and abilities before coming up with an action plan. In my case, Jane (Physiotherapist) did an amazing job with understanding what my situation was and she came up with strategies and an action plan to help me reach my goals. Lina (Massage Therapist) is amazing at what she does as well. She took the time to get to know my needs and made sure I was comfortable throughout the appointments. Furthermore, the assistant physiotherapists also take the time to get to know you and your needs. Front desk staff are wonderful to work with too. I have noticed improvements in my range of motion and couldn't have done it without the team at Beacon Hill Physio/Rehab! Thank you! ♡

I have been searching for a massage therapist for years and I must say Alyssa has been simply amazing along with all others ! The best part about Alyssa is she knows exactly what areas to work on without you even having to tell her . She gets right in and gets your blood flow moving leaving you so relaxed for days. I have trouble sleeping at night due to an accident and she certainly makes me sleep for the 90 mins I am there . I personally go there twice a week as I cannot get enough of her amazing massages . She is so approachable very knowledgeable , makes you feel so comfortable and answers any questions you have in a second. I would love to clone her if I could! I would highly recommend her and this clinic as they have everything you need right at your doorstep! I am certainly their #1 fan and will continue to go here for as long as I can!

I highly reccomend this place. Jane and everyone else listens to you. She's always assessing my condition to ensure I'm receiving the best treatment. The staff are super friendly. I feel like I'm in an environment that generally cares about my well being. They always ask for consent when working on your body. Super friendly and knowledgeable and willing to answer questions. As someone who has had a traumatic experience somewhere else, this clinic has been a dream to me. They never try to push me to do things that could hurt me. I feel comfortable going to this place.

I walked into the office without an appointment and was greeted with fantastic customer service. Physiotherapist Jane was able to see my for an assessment and continued my treatment program. All of the therapists and staff are very knowledgeable and friendly. I highly recommend Beacon Hill.

I came to Beacon just by reading the reviews, and I must say i am more than happy with my experience. Jane Emblem and her team are treating me for my knee injury, and they have been doing a great job. They have not just worked on my mobility specific to my injury but aslo, helping me strengthen the muscles around the injury.The team is responsive and friendly. I would absolutely recommend them!

Following my hip surgery I needed a Physiotherapist that would do hands-on physio. I heard about Beacon Hill Physiotherapy and decided to give it a try. My time so far spent with Phil from Beacon Hill super exceeds my expectations far more than I imagined. Phil is hands-on works the muscles and I have seen major improvement not only in my mobility but also my pain tolerance. I would highly recommend anyone to Beacon Hill if they require any type of physiotherapy. Thank you Phil.2nd Review - Phil's team is amazing and thank you to everyone that is involved in my physiotherapy for always making me feel more than 100% better. I would recommend Beacon Hill Physiotherapy and Rehabilitation for all of your physio and rehab needs.

My experience at Beacon Hill Physiotherapy has been amazing. I had been dealing with lower back issues for almost a year on and off, re-aggravated after any kind of sport or intense training. Phil and Jane were very friendly and welcoming from the onset, and they quickly managed to pinpoint the source of my problems (SI joint and a weak posterior chain). After a few weeks of treatment, the pain and stiffness subsided tremendously, and I have been able to continue my training to my desired level with almost full mobility and no pain. They are very well-informed and it is apparent that they care about patient recovery first and foremost. I will definitely be returning to this clinic for any periodic maintenance or re-aggravation. Thank you Phil, Jane and the rest of the team!

I was referred here by my family doctor and I am really happy with my experience. Jane Emblem and her team treated me, and they did a great job assessing my situation and putting together a plan specific to my injury. The team is friendly and engaging, but most importantly focused on patient recovery. I would absolutely recommend them!
