    Ice Pack

This is ice therapy you can do at home. You can use an ice gel pack, a freezer bag filled with ice, or a package of frozen peas or other frozen vegetables.

Lie on your stomach on your bed or on a firm sofa. Begin by placing a damp towel across your lower back. Next, place the ice pack over the damp towel, conforming the pack to the shape of your lower back. Finally, place a bath towel over the ice pack, covering everything. The cold therapy will now be evenly distributed across your lower back.

You can use this ice pack for up to 20 minutes. Wait one hour before repeating.

Testimonials

Reviews By Our Satisfied Patients

  • "I have been a patient at this practice for many, many years. About two years ago I moved out of the state. I've tried and tried to find a new chiropractor that even comes close to helping me manage my pain like Dr. Adamson did, unsuccessfully. Instead, I drive the 4 hours back to this office as often as I can, because he is the only doctor who has been able to help me feel better and THAT is worth the drive. He is kind, always takes time for his patients, pays attention to their changing needs, and is never 'too busy' for his patients. You won't ever feel rushed or like 'the next person in line' at this office!"
