The human spine is a complex structure of bones supported by muscles, nerves, ligaments, and tendons. The segments of our spine are cushioned with cartilage-like pads called discs. Injuries or dysfunctions with any of these components can lead to back pain.
Back pain can come from a traumatic injury or develop into a chronic condition over time, lasting for months or even years. Chronic back pain can cause long-term restrictions in your overall mobility and quality of life.
Several injuries commonly associated with back pain include:
Discomfort in the upper and mid back pain is commonly caused by overuse, muscle strain, injury, poor posture, or herniated discs. One of the most common culprits of upper and mid back pain is a musculoskeletal condition called Upper Cross Syndrome.
Problems in the lower back can be caused by a variety of injuries and imbalances in the complex structure of the spine. Many people experience a low back injury from improper lifting techniques or after sitting with an excessive arch in the low back. Nerve entrapment and muscular imbalances in the hips can also contribute to low back pain. These issues often develop into painful conditions like sciatica and Lower Cross Syndrome.
Although the causes of back pain may be different depending on location and type of injury, most back injuries share similar symptoms, including:
Pain symptoms are more common the older you get, and your risk of long-term injury is increased by lack of physical activity or by carrying extra weight. Certain repetitive activities may also affect your recovery time, such as lifting, pushing, or sitting for extended periods of time.

I was recommended Airrosti after suffering from a back injury that progressively worsened over the course of 2 months. I tried stretching, going to the chiropractor, taking anti-inflammatory medication, and even just working through the pain, but nothing was working. It became incredibly uncomfortable to sit for long periods of time and even worse to get out of bed in the morning. I decided I’d try anything at this point. The scheduling process was SO easy, and I scheduled an appointment for that same week with Dr. Hoang. She was very kind, made me feel comfortable, asked me detailed questions regarding my pain, and we got right to work. Within the first few minutes of my first visit, I knew that this was the place that was going to fi...+ show morex me. Dr. Hoang explained where the pain was coming from and why, and provided me with exercises to alleviate the pain. I followed every exercise closely and by the following week, my back felt 80% healed. For my second visit, Dr. Hoang worked to alleviate the remaining inflammation of my lower back. I walked out of my second appointment with a full range of motion and have felt incredible ever since. 2 months of pain fixed in two short appointments. Thank you, Airrosti, and thank you, Dr. Hoang!
