Back pain is one of the most common reasons people seek medical attention.
It is the symptom that prompts most patients who get chiropractic care. Virtually all human beings are subject to back problems. The fact that humans walk upright, on two legs, puts great pressure on the spine and muscles that support it. Over time, back pain is all but inevitable. Spinal subluxations may have symptoms localized in some part of the back or may radiate down to the buttocks, thighs and legs.
