Lower Crossed Syndrome-Back Pain? Hip Pain? Perth Chiropractor in Coogee, Fremantle, Success, Spearwood and Cockburn Area.

Do you spend a large part of your day sitting? Do you spend a long time in front of computer? Chances are you may have lower crossed syndrome.

Lower crossed syndrome occurs due to muscle imbalance, resulting in weakened muscle groups from disuse and tightness of muscle from overusage. (See illustrated)

​​The resulting muscle imbalance can alter the posture of our body, resulting in anterior pelvic tilt, forward drooping of the pelvis, and increasing the lordosis curve of the lumbar spine. 

The altered posture increases the strain on the underlying joints and if left untreated, can lead to: 

1. Hip pain
2. Slipped disc in low back and sciatica 
3. Hamstring Injuries 
4. Knee and various joint pains due to weakened core muscles

Chiropractic treatments can manage lower crossed syndrome in a drug-free and effective manner.  Our chiropractor would focus on restoring proper biomechanical function of the surrounding joints and musculatures. Treatments would usually involve joint manipulation/mobilisation, trigger point therapy, home stretches and kinesiotaping. Once the biomechanics have been corrected, the patients would then be gradually exposed to an exercise program aimed at strengthening the region involved. 
 
If you are experiencing any of the symptoms above, please do not hesitate to come in for an examination at Spearwood Chiropractic. Call us on 0481342837 to make an appointment.
