Dr. Alex Frantzis, Dr. David Pelletier, and our dedicated team are here to help you navigate this challenge with compassionate expertise and find solutions that will get you well long-term.
Common Causes of Back Pain
Back pain can arise for various reasons, and understanding these causes is the first step toward treatment. Poor posture, especially from prolonged sitting or improper lifting techniques, can lead to the soft tissues tightening and getting weaker. Additionally, injuries from sports or accidents can result in subluxations, while chronic conditions such as arthritis or degenerative disc disease may interfere with mobility. Emotional stress can also manifest physically, contributing to fatigue.
The Benefits of Chiropractic Care
We’re home to providers from different fields of medicine at NEOH Functional Rehab in Cleveland, Ohio, but chiropractic is central to our approach to back pain. We perform gentle spinal adjustments to realign the vertebrae, relieving pressure on nerves and other tissues. This non-invasive approach not only alleviates discomfort but also promotes biomechanical balance. Many patients report improved mobility and a greater sense of well-being after chiropractic adjustments, allowing them to return to their daily activities with renewed energy.
Physical Therapy: Strengthening and Healing
In conjunction with chiropractic care, physical therapy plays a vital role in treating back pain. We work with patients to develop personalized exercise programs that strengthen the muscles supporting the spine. These specialized exercises increase flexibility, improve posture, and reduce the risk of future injuries. By empowering patients with the tools they need to manage their pain, we foster a proactive approach to recovery.
Cold Laser Therapy: A Modern Solution
Cold laser therapy is an innovative treatment option available at NEOH Functional Rehab locations. This technique uses low-level lasers to stimulate healing in damaged tissues. By promoting cellular repair and reducing inflammation, cold laser therapy can significantly alleviate back pain. Patients often experience quick relief and improved function, making it an excellent complement to other treatment modalities.
The Healing Touch of Massage Therapy
Massage therapy is another essential component of our holistic approach to back pain relief. Our licensed massage therapists stretch tight muscles, improve circulation, and trigger the body’s relaxation response. This therapeutic touch not only eases physical discomfort but also promotes mental well-being, helping patients feel rejuvenated and ready to tackle their day.

At NEOH Functional Rehab, we believe in treating the whole person, not just the symptoms. Dr. Alex Frantzis, Dr. David Pelletier, and our team create comprehensive treatment plans that aim to resolve the root causes of back pain and promote long-term wellness.
