Common Back Pain Conditions and How We Help

These are the most common reasons our patients with back pain come see us for Chiropractic Care.

You’re not alone — 80% of adults will experience lower back pain. At Antignolo Chiropractic, we’ve helped hundreds of McKinney residents get out of pain and back to work, golf, and playing with grandkids — without drugs or surgery. Read More.

We specialize in the three most common lower back problems:

SI Joint Dysfunction: That deep, nagging ache on one side of your low back? The sacroiliac (SI) joints connect your spine to your pelvis. When they get stuck, inflamed, or shift even slightly, you feel:
Pain when standing from sitting.
Sharp jolts with stairs or twisting.
Discomfort that spreads to the hip, groin, or thigh.

How we fix it:
Targeted SI joint adjustments (gentle and specific)
Muscle release to reduce muscle stiffness

Disc Bulge or Herniation: The #1 cause of sciatica and “can’t get out of bed” pain. Your discs are like jelly donuts — when the outer wall weakens, the jelly pushes out and presses on nerves. This causes:
Sharp, burning low back pain.
Sciatica (shooting pain, numbness, or tingling down one leg). More on Sciatica Here.
Weakness in your foot or knee.

Our proven plan:
Precision adjustments, targeted muscle work, and at home exercises. When combined we can help the body heal, release tension, and build stability for lasting results.

Muscle Strains & Overuse Pain From heavy lifting, long desk hours, pregnancy, or weekend warrior injuries. You feel:
Tightness that worsens by afternoon.
Pain with bending or lifting.
Stiffness every morning.

We help fast:
Soft tissue therapy to release tight muscles
Gentle motion adjustments to restore flexibility
Simple home stretches you can do in 10 minutes

Upper back pain is now the #2 reason patients walk through our door — and it’s no surprise. Phones, laptops, and 8-hour desk days are wrecking posture and causing pain most people don’t connect to their screen time.
You feel it as:
Tightness or burning between your shoulder blades.
Headaches that start at the base of your skull.
Shoulders that feel “stuck” forward.
Trouble taking a deep breath.

We call this “Tech Neck” — and we fix it every day. Read More.

What’s really happening: Your head weighs ~11 lbs. For every inch it drifts forward:
Stress on your neck doubles
Upper back muscles overwork
Thoracic spine (mid-back) locks up
Science says: At 60° forward tilt (like scrolling), your spine feels 60 lbs of pressure — no wonder it hurts.

Our step-by-step fix:
Thoracic spine adjustments — open locked joints in seconds
Posture analysis — we show you exactly what’s off (with photos)
Muscle release + stretches — melt tension in traps and rhomboids
Home retraining plan — chin tucks, wall angels, 10-min daily routine

You’ve tried it all:
Physical therapy (helped a little, then stopped)
Pain pills (numbed it, but it came back)
Injections (temporary relief)
Even been told: “You’ll just have to live with it.”
We hear this every week — and we change the story!

Chronic back pain isn’t “normal aging.” It’s usually:
Old misalignments never fully corrected
Scar tissue from past injuries locking joints
Nerve irritation that’s been ignored for years
Compensation patterns — your body adapting in ways that cause more pain

Dr. Antignolo specializes in tough, long-term cases. We use:
Advanced diagnostic tools (digital X-rays, motion studies)
Corrective chiropractic care — targeted adjustments to help your body heal
Functional rehab to rebuild strength and stability
Personalized plans — no cookie-cutter treatment everyone gets their own treatment plan

Results timeline:
Noticeable relief: 2–4 weeks
Major improvement: 6–8 weeks
Full correction & prevention: 8–12 weeks
Many avoid surgery completely. If you’ve been suffering for months or years — this is your turning point.

Why Your Back Hurts: Root Causes & How We Fix Them

Without a doubt most of our patients have one or more of these root causes triggering their back pain symptoms. We assess and address these issues below to help our patients heal and recovery quickly.

Spinal Subluxations

A subluxation is when one or more spinal bones (vertebrae) shift slightly out of position. This misplacement irritates nearby nerves, restricts joint motion, and triggers inflammation. As a Chiropractor this is what we focus on the most. Restoring proper alignment is the key to creating changes in your health!

Muscle Tension & Trigger Points

Trigger points are tight, irritable bands of muscle fiber that form from overuse, poor posture, or stress. They feel like hard knots and can refer pain to other areas. Knots refer pain (e.g., upper back to headaches). We often find trigger points and muscle tension throughout the body. We are able to release these with targeted muscle work.

Posture & Forward Head Posture

Your head weighs about 11 lbs. For every inch it drifts forward (like when using a phone), stress on your neck and upper back doubles. Over time, this shifts your entire spine. Almost everyone that comes through our doors needs work on their posture and that is okay! Our adjustments, muscle work, and at-home exercises help correct posture issues!

Stress & Fight-or-Flight Mode

Chronic stress keeps your nervous system in “survival mode.” Muscles stay tight, breathing becomes shallow, and cortisol levels rise — all feeding pain and dysfunction. We help with Chiropractic adjustments; adjustments help calm the nervous system (activates parasympathetic “rest & digest”) which is what helps your body heal and relax.

Real Reviews From Patients Who Came In For Back Pain Relief in McKinney

  • While visiting family in Plano, I injured my back and was in serious pain. Thankfully, I reached out to Antignolo Chiropractic and was incredibly impressed from the very first phone call. Dr. Tyler was professional, kind, and truly went above and beyond. He got me in immediately, took the time to explain everything thoroughly, and made me feel at ease throughout the entire process.

    What really stood out was his dedication — he even brought me back in later that same day for an additional adjustment to ensure I’d be comfortable for my flight home. That level of care is rare to find.

    If you’re in the McKinney area and need chiropractic care, I can’t recommend Antignolo Chiropractic and Dr. Tyler enough. Exceptional service and true compassion for his patients.
