Back pain is one of the most common conditions in adult life and one of the leading causes of physician visits. 80% of the adult population will deal with low back pain at some point in their lifetime. The most common cause of back pain and stiffness is from fibrous adhesion. Although fibrous adhesion is extremely common it is often misdiagnosed. This leads to health care providers commonly prescribing things such as manipulation, taping, stretching and exercises that do not affect adhesion. Unless treated properly by an expert, adhesion can eventually lead to other problems down the road such as lumbar disc problems, low back muscle spasms and early onset spinal degeneration and chronic pain.
Causes of back pain that we treat:

Neck pain is all too common in today's society full of cell phone and computer use. Overuse of the neck muscles with bad posture often leads to the formation of fibrous adhesion in the muscles. Although fibrous adhesion is extremely common it is often misdiagnosed. This leads to health care providers commonly prescribing things such as manipulation, taping, stretching and exercises that do not affect adhesion. Unless treated properly by an expert, adhesion can eventually lead to other problems down the road such as cervical disc problems, neck and upper back muscle spasms and early onset spinal degeneration.

Fibrous Muscular Adhesion
Peripheral Nerve Entrapment
Peripheral Nerve Entrapment
Fibrous muscle adhesion or scar tissue in the muscles is the most common source of pain, weakness, and limited motion in the human body. It is unfortunately also the most under-diagnosed problem in the musculo-skeletal system. With expert treatment, fibrous muscle adhesion (scar tissue in the muscles) can be reversed.
Peripheral Nerve Entrapment
Peripheral Nerve Entrapment
Peripheral Nerve Entrapment
There are many areas in the body where nerves have to pass through or in between adjacent structures. Since muscles are always expanding and contracting to allow movement, the nerves utilize slippery sheaths to guide them through these muscles. When damage occurs to these nerves and protective sheaths, fibrous adhesion (scar tissue) is
There are many areas in the body where nerves have to pass through or in between adjacent structures. Since muscles are always expanding and contracting to allow movement, the nerves utilize slippery sheaths to guide them through these muscles. When damage occurs to these nerves and protective sheaths, fibrous adhesion (scar tissue) is laid down to repair the damage causing the muscles to adhere to the nerve like an area of glue. This area of glue is called an adhesion and can often cause tightness, numbness, tingling, and weakness.
