Chiropractic for Middle Back Pain Part I: Common Causes

Chiropractic for Middle Back Pain Part I:  Common Causes


If you have ever experienced pain in your middle back (thoracic area), you have plenty of company.  One study estimates that 30 percent of working adults experience at least one episode of middle back pain each year (J Occup Health 2009;51:177-92).

The good news is that chiropractic care effectively alleviates both acute and chronic pain on the middle back.  Some common causes are:

  • Improper posture
  • Physical stress
  • Emotional stress
  • Misaligned ribs
  • Referred spinal pain
  • Osteoarthritis
  • Mattress and sleeping position

If you are experiencing middle back pain, there is no need to suffer.  Call our office today and schedule a chiropractic evaluation.  Together, you and the doctor will work to determine the underlying cause of your discomfort — and how to correct it.Dr. Barbara Smith
