Comprehensive Back & Neck Pain Relief Solutions
Back Pain Relief — Feel Strong Again
If lower back pain has become part of your daily routine, we can help. Our chiropractors use gentle, targeted adjustments to restore spinal alignment and reduce tension on irritated nerves.
Our back pain treatments may include:
- Manual spinal adjustments
- Spinal decompression for disc relief
- Guided mobility and posture training
- Core-strength exercises to prevent flare-ups
💡 Think of an adjustment like pressing “refresh” on your spine — helping your body move the way it was designed to.
Neck Pain Chiropractor in Lakeside
Neck tension often comes from long hours at a desk or constantly looking down at your phone. This “tech neck” can lead to headaches, fatigue, and stiffness.
At HFC Wellness, our chiropractors relieve pain by correcting spinal misalignments in your cervical region and improving muscle balance around your shoulders and neck.
Our care plans include:
- Cervical spine adjustments
- Soft-tissue therapy for tight muscles
- Ergonomic advice to reduce strain
- At-home stretches to maintain results
👉 Many patients notice improved flexibility and better posture after just a few visits.
Chiropractic Care for Sciatica
If you’re feeling sharp pain that shoots down your leg or numbness in your toes, it may be sciatica — caused by pressure on the sciatic nerve.
At our Lakeside chiropractic office, we combine chiropractic adjustments with decompression therapy and functional movement strategies to relieve that nerve pressure and restore your comfort.
We treat:
- Sciatica and leg pain
- Numbness or tingling in the lower limbs
- Disc-related nerve compression
- Posture-related back pain
💬 Our goal is simple: to help you walk, sit, and sleep again — pain-free.
Spinal Decompression Therapy
When a disc slips or degenerates, the pain can radiate into your back, neck, or even your arms and legs. Spinal decompression offers a non-surgical, comfortable way to treat disc-related pain.
The therapy uses a special table to gently stretch your spine, relieving pressure and creating space for oxygen and nutrients to flow into damaged discs.
Ideal for conditions such as:
- Herniated or bulging discs
- Degenerative disc disease
- Chronic lower back pain
- Sciatica and nerve irritation
💡 Patients often say spinal decompression feels like a gentle stretch that melts away tension.
Functional Nutrition for Long-Term Healing
Pain relief isn’t just about your spine — it’s about how your entire body functions. That’s why functional nutrition plays a major role in our approach.
We’ll assess your nutrition habits, energy levels, and inflammation triggers to create a plan that helps your body heal from within.
Our programs include:
- Personalized meal and supplement plans
- Gut health and detox protocols
- Weight management and lifestyle guidance
- Education on sustainable wellness habits
👉 When your body gets the right fuel, recovery happens faster and lasts longer.
Holistic Chiropractic Care for Every Stage of Life
We treat more than just symptoms — we treat people. Whether you’re an athlete recovering from injury, an expectant mom, or someone seeking better mobility in later years, we tailor care to fit your lifestyle.
We offer:
- Prenatal chiropractic for hip and back pain relief
- Sports performance and recovery care
- Posture correction for desk workers
- Family and pediatric chiropractic
At HFC Wellness, our patients range from toddlers to grandparents — because good health is for everyone.
