The best treatment for low back pain depends on the underlying cause of the pain. At Amplify Chiropractic and Wellness, we understand that back pain is a multifaceted problem that has more than one cause. We will do everything we can to determine the root cause of your back pain rather than using prescription medication to mask your symptoms. Take a look at our treatment options for low back pain in Poughkeepsie, NY.  

Low-Force Instrument-Assisted Chiropractic Adjustments

An Activator Adjustment, or low-force instrument-assisted adjustment, is one of the safest methods of back pain treatment. Our chiropractor, Dr. Rinaldi, uses the ProAdjuster to safely deliver gentle pressure to your muscles, spine, and joints. The ProAdjuster operates via a precise, state-of-the-art computer program that analyzes and interprets joint motion. The program transmits the information to the Adjuster, which applies the exact amount of force needed to perform adjustments. Chiropractic adjustments alleviate spinal misalignments and restore the flow of blood, oxygen, and nutrients throughout the spine. They also relieve pressure on muscles, nerves, and joints, reduce pain and inflammation, and improve mobility and range of motion. 

Class IV Laser Therapy

Class IV laser therapy utilizes low level laser light to penetrate deep within the tissues and muscles. Our Medray T3 Laser System can be used on almost any part of the body to decrease chronic pain and inflammation. As the laser light enters the tissues, it stimulates the body’s natural healing processes. This aids with cell and tissue regeneration and speeds up the healing process. Laser therapy is non-invasive and nonsurgical, and does not require downtime or recovery time. There is virtually no risk of negative side effects or complications. 

Shockwave Therapy

Shockwave therapy uses a small, handheld device that sends pulses of energy to injured areas. Dr. Rinaldi uses the MiracleWave® device to rejuvenate the body and promote tissue repair and regeneration. We can use shockwave therapy on muscles, tendons, joints, bones, and soft tissue. MiracleWave® shockwave therapy can increase circulation around injured tissues, break down calcified deposits, stimulate cell regrowth, and reduce pain. It is an incredibly effective alternative to prescription pain medication or surgery.
