15 Years of Back Pain! The Problem Was His Foundation

Frank flew from Texas to Los Angeles after suffering 15 years of chronic back pain that began after lifting a heavy case of water. He was told he had a herniated disc and tried physical therapy and conservative care with no results. After a full Gonstead examination and full-spine X-ray analysis, Dr. Rahim Salehmohamed discovered a transitional spinal pattern involving the sacrum and lumbar spine, something seen in only about 10% of the population. Frank has six functional lumbar vertebrae, which changes how stability, compensation, and long-term strengthening must be approached. Across three visits, Dr. Rahim addressed sacral and pelvic foundation issues first, before allowing the rest of the spine to stabilize. This case shows why treating the foundation matters more than chasing symptoms. #BackPainRelief #Gonstead #ChiropracticCare #SpineHealth #RootCause #DrRahim
