The common causes
Low back pain is one of the most common reasons people seek care. It can develop gradually over time or appear suddenly after lifting, bending, prolonged sitting, or injury.
Poor posture, repetitive strain, sedentary lifestyles, and previous trauma can all create structural stress in the lower spine. Over time, this stress may contribute to disc injuries, joint irritation, degeneration, sciatica-like symptoms, or persistent muscle tension. Even daily habits — such as prolonged sitting, unsupportive footwear, or improper lifting mechanics — can place ongoing strain on the lower back.
While many people focus on managing symptoms, low back pain is often a sign of an underlying structural imbalance affecting how the spine distributes load and protects the nervous system.
At Duncraig Chiropractic, we use Advanced BioStructural Correction™ (ABC™) to identify and correct primary structural distortions contributing to low back stress. Rather than
repeatedly treating flare-ups, ABC™ aims to restore proper alignment so the body can hold change and function more efficiently.
Through a thorough assessment — and imaging where clinically appropriate — we determine the root cause of your discomfort and develop a personalised structural care plan.
Addressing low back pain early can help prevent chronic patterns from developing and support long-term strength, stability and movement.

Treatment for Back Pain
The first thing we will do is investigate the cause of your pain and then give advice on how to correct the problem. Your chiropractor will take your history and run a thorough examination to assess your injury. We also have X-ray facilities if further investigation into the cause of your low back pain is required.
Once the initial assessment has been completed your chiropractor will give you recommendations for care going forward. Treatment options include:
- Chiropractic adjustments
- Ergonomic advice
- Soft tissue therapy
- Exercise
Our highly qualified chiropractors are here to help with your back pain. In the event that your chiropractor identifies that our practice is not suited to your injury, we will then organise a referral to another health practitioner that can help.
