EFFECTIVE TAILBONE PAIN TREATMENT
The biggest challenge in recovering from Tailbone pain (coccydynia) is that most doctors don’t treat the tailbone directly, if they do at all. Some physicians don’t see the problem often and may not know what to do or would rather ignore the area altogether. If they do know about coccydynia, they may look at everything around the tailbone area, but frequently pay little attention to the tailbone itself, avoiding it because it may be awkward to touch around that area.
However, without proper treatment, tailbone pain can become acute and severe in many circumstances. When that happens, just sitting for more than a few seconds can become difficult, if not impossible. This is when tailbone pain becomes a major disruption in a person’s life. And while most doctors are looking at everything except the tailbone as the cause of tailbone pain, the condition may actually be getting worse. In cases like these, where the tailbone hurts and may even be worsening with normal daily activity, effective tailbone pain treatment can’t wait!
CAUSES OF TAILBONE PAIN
There are two major types of tailbone pain causes. The most common is trauma or injury. Typically, people may have slipped or fallen and know all too well that they injured their tailbone. There is nothing quite the same and no mistaking pain in that area.
The second major cause of tailbone pain is a result of sitting for long periods leaning backwards or in a poor position or on a hard and unforgiving surface. Tailbone pain may also be caused by other back problems such as nerve degeneration or as an after a pregnancy or delivery. Whatever its cause, any tailbone pain treatment should begin with locating the actual source of the pain in order to find any tailbone pain relief.

TRADITIONAL TREATMENTS FOR TAILBONE PAIN
Like many other back issues, tailbone pain treatment is usually just treating pain symptoms. Over-the-counter pain relievers, donut-shaped pillows, and “the pain will go away” are the usual advice when your tailbone hurts. Massage and physical therapy for the pelvic floor are sometimes recommended, but while these may give some temporary relief they do not address the direct cause of tailbone pain: incorrect alignment or movement of the sacrococcygeal joint.
In cases of injury or trauma, the prescription may be “wait for the tailbone injury to heal” without even considering that the trauma may have moved the tailbone out of alignment. The fact is that most doctors and pelvic floor therapists treating tailbone injuries look at everything in the pelvic floor area except the tailbone joints and their movement. Effective tailbone pain relief requires treatment of the underlying cause: Tailbone positioning or the joint motion itself.

WHOLE-PATIENT TAILBONE TREATMENT
Chiropractic treatment is the most effective and least invasive in providing tailbone pain relief and addressing the causes of tailbone pain. Most tailbone pain is caused by a misaligned tailbone joint, and chiropractors are best at adjusting those joints. In addition, Dr. Becker is one of a small number of practitioners who perform internal tailbone manipulation. The muscles can relax by internally manipulating the tailbone for better joint motion, and pain decreases.
Dr. Becker knows that each patient is unique, requiring individualized tailbone pain treatment plans. Therefore, Dr. Becker does not deal in “generic” multi-session treatment packages. Most of Dr. Becker’s patients find significant relief immediately and usually fully resolve in just a few treatment sessions. Dr. Becker then works with the patient to create exercise programs, lifestyle and work habit changes to prevent the problem from recurring.
