Pain Management in Burbank, CA

Tired of dealing with daily aches, nerve pain, or stiffness that just won’t go away? We understand how these conditions go beyond discomfort—they affect your sleep, mood, and mobility, among others. We’re here to help you out. 

More Life Chiropractic offers personalized pain management in Burbank, CA, using natural, drug-free techniques to help you enjoy lasting relief.

What Causes Chronic Pain?

Chronic pain can stem from various factors, from lifestyle choices to existing conditions. Some of its common triggers include the following:

• Poor posture and prolonged sitting strain your spine and core muscles, which may irritate the nerves along your back.
• Muscle tension, such as that resulting from stress, restricts blood flow in the affected area and could trigger inflammation and pain.
• Herniated or bulging discs from an injured spine place undue pressure on nearby nerves, causing sharp, burning pain.
• Joint restrictions and misalignments lead to mechanical stress and inflammation in your bones, soft tissues, and joints.
• Nerve irritation from herniated discs, muscle tension, and many other conditions can induce radiating pain, numbness, and weakness around the injury.
• Repetitive strain injuries from working or playing sports without rest trigger pain by causing tiny repeated injuries to tissues and nerves.

At More Life Chiropractic, our pain management in Burbank goes beyond temporary relief by targeting the root causes of discomfort and working to prevent your symptoms from recurring.

How We Treat Pain at More Life Chiropractic

We manage pain relief through a multi-therapy approach. We take into account your pain level, comfort, and lifestyle to develop a personalized treatment program that supports every avenue to recovery.

Chiropractic Adjustments

We’ll apply controlled pressure to misaligned joints and sections of your spine to address misalignments and restrictions. Chiropractic pain relief reduces stress on these areas over time, supporting recovery and helping you move and feel better.

Myofascial Release and Soft Tissue Therapy

Are there tight or tender areas in your body making movement painful or difficult? Myofascial release and soft tissue therapy target tight or inflamed muscles, tendons, ligaments, and fascia. They help reduce adhesions, improve circulation, and restore mobility to support pain relief and recovery.

Neuromuscular Reeducation

This technique retrains your nervous system and muscles to coordinate effectively. It helps restore proper movement patterns, particularly after an injury or surgery, by targeting specific areas of dysfunction.

Vertebral and Extremity Joint Therapy

These approaches use hands-on techniques such as adjustments and mobilization to restore joint function and relieve pain. They’re particularly beneficial for managing joint discomfort and supporting recovery from sports‑related sprains and strains.

Decompression Therapy

Often recommended for spinal conditions like herniated discs, decompression therapy uses traction to gently stretch your spine. This process relieves pressure on the discs and surrounding nerves, easing pain along with numbness and tingling sensations.

Sports Taping

Sports taping uses specially designed elastic tapes to help manage pain during physical activity while supporting muscles and joints. Rooted in kinesiology principles, this technique is widely used in sports medicine to enhance performance, aid recovery, and enhance overall physical well-being.

Physiotherapy

Our physiotherapy program helps patients manage pain through corrective exercises to improve their mobility and address any weaknesses. This approach targets the root cause of pain while helping restore your body’s optimal function.

Cupping Therapy

A centuries-old practice, cupping therapy uses suction to draw blood towards the skin’s surface, improving circulation in areas of pain or injury. This increased blood flow may support your body’s natural healing process and help relieve discomfort.

Instrument-Assisted Soft Tissue Mobilization (IASTM)

IASTM uses specific tools to apply targeted strokes over the affected skin, muscles, tendons, ligaments, or fascia. This stimulation helps reduce scar tissue and adhesions, minimizing pain and enhancing mobility.
