Back Pain Relief in West Mifflin
Back pain isn’t just uncomfortable — it disrupts your work, your workouts, your sleep, and your daily routine. Whether it began suddenly or crept in over time, most back pain isn’t a “mystery problem.” It’s your body telling you that something in your movement system isn’t functioning the way it should.
At New Edge Spine & Sport, we combine chiropractic care, soft-tissue treatment, and individualized rehab to not only reduce your pain, but also restore long-term movement and strength so the problem stops coming back.
Why Back Pain Happens
Most people are told their back pain is caused by “tight muscles,” “a pinched nerve,” or “sleeping wrong.” In reality, back pain usually develops from deeper functional issues, such as:
Limited hip or thoracic spine mobility
Weak glutes or core stability
Overworked lower-back muscles compensating for other areas
Poor lifting mechanics or repetitive strain
Prolonged sitting, driving, or desk work
Stress and protective muscle guarding
Old injuries that never truly healed
Pain is often the symptom, not the true problem. We identify the root cause instead of just treating the surface irritation.
Common Back Problems We Help With
You’re in the right place if you’re experiencing:
Sharp or stabbing pain
Aching or stiffness in the lower back
Pain with sitting, bending, lifting, or twisting
Sciatica or nerve irritation
Pain after workouts or long workdays
Back tightness that returns over and over
Pain that’s worse in the morning or after rest
Whether your pain began from lifting, sports, work, or “out of nowhere,” our job is to get you moving well again.
Signs Your Back Pain Is Getting Worse
Ignoring back pain rarely makes it go away. Watch for these warning signs:
Pain spreading into the hips, buttocks, or legs
Increasing stiffness in the morning
Trouble standing upright after sitting
Pain after simple daily movements
Feeling like your back “locks up”
Needing medication just to get through your day
If you’re noticing any of these, early care helps prevent chronic issues or long-term nerve irritation.
Our Approach: Rehab + Chiropractic for Lasting Relief
Most clinics offer either a quick adjustment or basic therapy. At New Edge, we combine both — which is why you feel better and move better.
1. Chiropractic Adjustments
Gentle, targeted adjustments help restore joint motion, decrease pain, and improve how your spine moves.
2. Soft-Tissue + Muscle Work
We use hands-on techniques to reduce muscle tension, release trigger points, and improve mobility.
3. Corrective Exercise & Rehab
This is the game-changer.
We retrain the muscles and patterns that protect your spine:
Glute activation
Core stability
Hip mobility
Bracing and lifting mechanics
Functional strength and movement patterns
This stops your pain from returning — something quick-fix clinics can’t offer.
4. Personalized Plan
Your treatment plan is based on your body, your lifestyle, and your goals. No cookie-cutter routines or rushed sessions.
What to Expect During Your First Visit
Your first appointment is a full 1-on-1 session where we:
Review your pain history and daily movement habits
Perform a detailed movement and strength assessment
Identify the root cause of your back pain
Provide hands-on treatment the same day
Teach you a few key exercises to start improving immediately
You’ll walk out knowing exactly what’s wrong, why it’s happening, and what we’re going to do to fix it.
