When is back pain a sign of

accompanied by certain other symptoms you should seek medical care as quickly
as possible. These additional symptoms include:

result of a traumatic injury.
What happens during A-IMS®
treatment for back pain?
Dr. Lee treats back pain when it is caused by muscle spasms caused by nerve-
muscles interactions, which is common for the majority of back pain patients. For
upper and mid back pain, the primary muscles treated are rhomboids, levator
scapulae that have attachments to the back. Other muscles such a Numbness
s latissimus dorsi, lower trapezius and lumbosacral spinal muscles are also
treated if needed. For the lower back, lumbosacral paraspinal, gluteus maximus,
gluteus medius muscles are treated. Other muscles such as latissimus dorsi,
quadratus lumborum, and gluteus minimus are also treated if needed. These
muscles are stimulated with a needle to obtain local twitch responses LTRs (see
Fast Relief – LTR Section of this website for the explanation) that will bring
predictable, fast relief of the back pain. If you’re ready to try a new approach to
treating back pain, schedule an appointment with Dr. Lee at your earliest
convenience.
