Chiropractic Care for Lower Back Pain

Lower back pain is one of the most common reasons people seek chiropractic care. It may come from joint restriction, muscle tension, disc irritation, posture stress, repetitive movement, or prolonged sitting.

Dr. Po evaluates how your spine, pelvis, hips, and surrounding muscles are functioning together. Treatment may include chiropractic adjustments, myofascial soft tissue therapy, Active Release techniques, mobility work, and practical recommendations to help reduce strain between visits.

Choose Motion Wellness for a Comfortable, Personalized Approach

Every patient is different. Some people need a gentle approach, while others respond best to more direct structural correction or focused soft tissue work.

Dr. Po Leknickas brings an international clinical background and more than a decade of experience in the Culver City area. His approach blends orthopedic-style chiropractic care, soft tissue therapy, and structural/postural assessment to create treatment that is specific, comfortable, and effective.

Patients often seek care here because they want more than a basic adjustment; they want thoughtful evaluation, hands-on treatment, and a plan that fits their body.

Your treatment plan develops with your progress. Dr. Po reviews what is improving, what remains difficult, and whether your care needs to change.

FAQ: Back Pain Chiropractic Care

Care may combine chiropractic adjustments, soft tissue therapy, mobility work, and practical recommendations for posture, stretching, and daily movement.

Usually not. Imaging is recommended only when your history or examination suggests it may be necessary for diagnosis or safe treatment.

It varies depending on how long you have had the problem, its severity, and how your body responds to care. Dr. Po will recommend a treatment plan based on your progress rather than a predetermined number of visits.
