Back Pain Chiropractor in Algoma, WI
Dr. Amber Vanden Avond specializes in finding the root cause of your back pain and creating a personalized plan to get you moving comfortably again.
I just want to be able to pick up my kids without wincing. I want to feel like myself again.
Back pain is one of the most common reasons people visit a chiropractor — and one of the conditions we treat most effectively at Lighthouse Chiropractic. Whether it's a dull ache that won't go away, sharp pain with movement, or stiffness that limits your daily activities, back pain can take over your life.
The causes are varied: poor posture, muscle strain, disc issues, spinal misalignment, repetitive stress, or even emotional tension. The problem is that most people try to push through the pain or rely on medication to mask it — neither of which addresses the root cause.
At Lighthouse Chiropractic, Dr. Amber takes a different approach. She listens to your story, performs a thorough examination, identifies the underlying cause of your pain, and creates a personalized treatment plan that addresses the problem — not just the symptoms.

How Chiropractic Care Helps Back Pain
Chiropractic adjustments are one of the most effective, evidence-based treatments for back pain. By restoring proper spinal alignment, reducing nerve interference, and improving joint mobility, adjustments address the root cause of your pain rather than just masking symptoms.
Dr. Amber combines manual adjustments with complementary therapies like Graston Technique for soft tissue restrictions, craniosacral therapy for nervous system calming, and personalized exercise recommendations to create a comprehensive treatment plan.
- Precise spinal adjustments to restore alignment and reduce nerve pressure
- Soft tissue therapy to release muscle tension and break down adhesions
- Postural assessment and correction to prevent future episodes
- Personalized home exercises and stretches to support your recovery
- Ongoing wellness care to maintain your results and prevent recurrence
