Lower Back Pain

Lower Back Pain Treatment in Long Branch, NJ

Real Relief. Lasting Results. Move With Confidence Again.

Lower back pain is one of the most common reasons people seek chiropractic care—and for good reason. At New Life Chiropractic, we help patients find lasting relief from lower back pain by identifying and correcting the root cause, not just masking symptoms. Whether your pain is occasional, chronic, or injury-related, we provide non-invasive, personalized care to restore mobility, reduce inflammation, and help you feel like yourself again.


What Causes Lower Back Pain?

The lower back (lumbar spine) supports much of your body’s weight and movement. When the spine is misaligned, muscles are imbalanced, or nerves are compressed, it can lead to inflammation, tightness, and pain.

Common causes we treat include:

  • Spinal misalignments or joint dysfunction

  • Muscle strain or ligament sprain

  • Herniated or bulging discs

  • Degenerative disc disease

  • Sciatica or nerve irritation

  • Poor posture or prolonged sitting

  • Repetitive lifting or bending

  • Previous injuries or accidents

Regardless of the cause, our focus is on restoring proper spinal alignment and movement, so your body can heal and function at its best.

Symptoms of Lower Back Issues

  • Persistent or sharp pain in the lower back

  • Pain that radiates into the hips, buttocks, or legs

  • Muscle stiffness or tightness

  • Limited flexibility or range of motion

  • Pain that worsens with movement, standing, or sitting

  • Numbness or tingling (especially if sciatica is involved)

If your pain is interfering with daily life or keeps coming back, chiropractic care may offer the solution you need.


Our Chiropractic Approach to Low Back Pain Relief

At New Life Chiropractic, our treatment plans are built around you—your condition, your goals, and how your body responds to care.

Your custom care plan may include:

  • Chiropractic adjustments to restore alignment and reduce joint stress

  • Flexion Distraction Therapy for gentle spinal decompression

  • Soft tissue techniques to reduce muscle tension and inflammation

  • Corrective exercise therapy to stabilize the spine and prevent reinjury

  • Postural and ergonomic coaching to improve movement habits

  • Lifestyle and wellness support to strengthen your healing from the inside out

We focus on correcting the cause of your pain, not just relieving it temporarily.

Love Dr. Richard’s, Michelle and staff. I have been coming here for almost 2 years and I feel so much better than before, the weekly adjustments help me move better as I try to keep consistent with a workout plan. The fact that I sit in an office for work makes me feel heavy stress and pain in my lower back and neck…
