One study sets out to find a way to predict how often disc degeneration affects humans and how often low back pain occurs. The estimated age when the spine’s intervertebral disc started to lose growth potential and actually begins to degenerate is 13.3 years young! (Lombardy Chiropractic Clinic encourages children of current Augusta chiropractic patients as well as our own young Augusta chiropractic patients to feed their discs! Read more about spinal nutrition.) It then degenerates 0.0344 per year. That doesn’t seem like much, does it? But spinal disc degeneration accumulates. It is the driving force behind and cause of age-dependent low back pain. Low back pain is complex, a mix of slow degeneration and fast recurrence of pain episodes. (1)

Now, Lombardy Chiropractic Clinic aims to make the complex, simple. When figuring out the source of your spinal pain, Lombardy Chiropractic Clinic relies on current guidelines for the management of low back pain. These guidelines are set forth to avoid misdiagnosis and mismanagement which may lead to patient frustration when you don’t experience the care or relief you expect. Unfortunately, this happens as one recent research paper highlights via two cases of low back pain that faced just such frustration until a streamlined, evidence-based approach to diagnosis and treatment was implemented.
