Mid Back Pain
The tragic result of
uncorrected trauma.

    Mid back pain is one of the most common complaints that patients
    report when they first visit the office of a chiropractor.
    The mid back area is called the "dorsal" or "thoracic" spine. There
    are normally twelve bones with a matching twelve pairs of ribs that
    make up the mid back area.
    If you experience pain or tightness in your mid back, see your
    chiropractor immediately to determine its cause and to design a care
    plan specific to your needs.
    Mid back pain
    can be a
    serious symptom

    Symptoms of mid back pain can range from muscle tightness and spasms,
    trigger points (areas of acute spasm and pain), restricted range of motion
    when bending or twisting, and sharp or stabbing pains from the back, radiating
    to the front. The rib cage can also become distorted causing symptoms that
    mimic respiratory or cardiac problems such as shortness of breath, irregular
    heartbeat and fast or slow heart rhythms.

    This is why you should be evaluated be a doctor of chiropractic whenever mid
    back pain or symptoms occur. Your chiropractor specializes in the
    musculoskeletal system and its Biomechanical related functions. A complete
    history and examination will help determine the origin of the problem and how
    best to proceed. A corrective care plan will then be designed to alleviate your
    symptoms and correct underlying problems.

    and its optimal function is necessary for overall good health.

    program that may include specific spinal adjustments, exercise
    recommendations, nutritional advice or other conservative methods
    of care based on your health history, age current condition and
