Back Pain Chiropractor in Milwaukie, OR
Back pain after a car accident or a lifting strain usually comes from a joint, disc or soft-tissue injury.

How back pain care works in Milwaukie
First we sort out what is irritated: a joint, a disc, a strained muscle or ligament, or a combination. Your exam includes movement and strength testing and a nerve check of your legs, plus digital X-rays here at the clinic if your findings call for them.
Your plan may combine adjustments, soft-tissue work, flexion distraction, and therapeutic ultrasound with exercises that rebuild the muscles that support your spine. As you improve, hands-on care steps back and your own exercises carry more of the load. Our back pain guide covers what you can do at home.

Common questions about back pain in Milwaukie
Can a chiropractor help my back after a car accident?
Yes. Crash forces can strain the joints, discs, and muscles of the low back. We find which one is involved and treat it with adjustments and rehab, not just pain relief.
Do I need an X-ray for back pain?
Not always. Your doctor reviews your history and exam first. If the findings point to a need, digital X-rays are taken here at the Milwaukie clinic.
How long does back pain take to heal after a crash?
Most soft-tissue injuries heal on a 12-week active-recovery window, and the tissue keeps strengthening for up to a year. Your plan starts at 2 to 3 visits a week and tapers as you improve. We measure your progress at every re-exam, so your visits follow your exam, not the calendar.
I’m pregnant and my back hurts. Who should I see in Milwaukie?
Ask for Dr. Hannah Scheck, DC. She is trained in the Webster Technique, which she uses to care for pregnant patients. Mention your pregnancy when you call or text (503) 919-7001. It’s also wise to tell your prenatal care provider that you’re starting chiropractic care.
