Tight Lower Back? Sharp Pain When You Move? Numbness Running Down Your Leg? We’ve Got You Covered.

At Metro Wellness, we help people overcome low back pain, stiffness, and nerve irritation—without surgery, medications, or temporary fixes. Whether you’re dealing with sciatica, a herniated disc, muscle tightness, or postural strain from desk work, we focus on treating the real cause—not just masking the symptoms.

Our expert team of chiropractors, physical therapists, and acupuncturists takes a whole-body, hands-on approach. We use a combination of advanced techniques such as chiropractic adjustments, spinal decompression, and flexion-distraction therapy to relieve pressure on the spine and nerves. We also incorporate cupping, IASTM (muscle scraping), acupuncture, and medical massage (performed by licensed physical therapists) to reduce inflammation, release tight muscles, and restore healthy, pain-free movement—naturally.

  • Caused by: disc pressure on spinal nerves

3. Sciatica (Nerve Pain)
