Chiropractic adjustments assist with local pain relief from the joints in the lumbar spine moving and sending pain relieving nerve messages to the brain. The improved mobility in the joints, allow increased circulation and blood flow which helps “wash” the pain-producing chemicals away from the injured area. This, together with moving as much as possible and doing non-painful stretches, “flosses” the nerve fibers through the area and restores normal sensitivity to the nerve structures.
