Middle back pain can be caused by a variety of conditions, including previous back surgery. One of the common complaints of patients who have previously had lower back surgery is recurring pain in the middle back. This is particularly common when fusion of the L4-5 and 5-S1 is involved. The vertebrae just above the L4-5 segment can become stressed, especially in more active individuals.

The best defense against middle back pain after a lower back fusion is muscle strengthening and training. Ultrasound therapy such as our personal therapeutic ultrasound device has been shown to be effective in reducing the pain and muscle spasms that are common with stress in the middle back region. Whether you're trying to avoid back surgery using conservative treatments or you're managing pain resulting from surgery, ultrasound therapy may be your answer.

Using ultrsound therapy on a daily basis will keep the blood flow to the muscle fresh and full of oxygen. The heat generated deep in the soft tissue via the sound waves is effective in relieving inflammation and pain, reducing muscle spasms, and increasing your range of motion. More muscle flexibility makes it easier to obtain the benefits of an exercise routine.

A Black Body Radiant Energy Kit is one of the most helpful tools for a wide varity of painful back muscle related problems. Through the absorption of radiant energy, tissues are safely and gently heated - increasing blood flow within the treated area. Your body's natural response to this increased temperature is to try to maintain a condition of homeostasis - a balanced environment or state of equilibrium throughout the body. To do this, your body responds with a rapid increase in blood flow to the area (this is known as vasodilation), increasing the supply of nutrients to injured cells and flushing out toxins (including lactic acid, commonly found in trigger points) to promote healing. Our Thermotex Platinum Pain Relief Device provides effective, non-invasive, non-addictive pain relief with no side effects.
