Our Approach to Low Back Pain


We start with a world-class assessment to understand why you’re experiencing low back pain. This means we look beyond just “where it hurts”. This includes movement analysis, joint and tissue evaluation, and a detailed conversation about your lifestyle, training and goals.

1. Assess the Root-Cause


Our first priority is helping you feel better. We use a combination of evidence-informed treatments to decrease pain and calm irritated tissues. Some of these include: chiropractic adjustments, soft tissue therapy (myofascial scraping, cupping), and dry needling among others.

2. Reduce Pain & Discomfort


3. Restore Movement & Function

We aim to restore faulty movement patterns that are likely the root cause of your pain. Once we have reduced some of the irritation & pain, we shift our focus to how your body moves. This is where long-term results are built. Treatment may include: targeted mobility work, functional rehabilitation exercises using techniques such as Dynamic Neuromuscular Stabilization (DNS), the McKenzie Method of Mechanical Diagnosis & Therapy (MDT), GRIP Approach, and other traditional rehabilitation exercises.


4. Return to the Activities you Love

Our goal isn’t just symptom relief, it’s getting you back to doing what you enjoy with confidence. Whether that’s working out, playing sports, or staying active with your family. We build a plan that supports your lifestyle and goals.


It’s important to note that no two cases of low back pain are exactly the same. That’s why every treatment plan is tailored to the individual. At Main Health Collective, we combine chiropractic care, movement-based rehabilitation, and hands-on therapy to help you move better, feel better, and stay better.

  • “I was under the care of Dr. Marissa for about a year, and from the very beginning I felt completely comfortable with her. She was truly invested in helping me and always took the time to explain anything I needed more information on. Dr. Marissa genuinely listened to and understood my concerns, which is something that feels rare these days. I’m very grateful for the care she provided throughout my time as her patient. I highly recommend Dr. Marissa!"

  • “I showed up with a back injury that was incredibly painful and limiting. Within the first couple sessions I had significant relief. Dr. (Zach) Main took time to clearly explain what was going on and how we would treat it. His focus was on both treating the injury but also ensuring that I had a plan in place to prevent it from recurring.”

    - Brad

  • “Absolutely love Dr. Marissa! She has explained so much to me on one visit than all my doctors combined in several years! She was able to tell me things from reading my bloodwork that my doctors did not even pick up. Honestly amazing! She is so sweet, really listens and like I said really explains things! I highly recommend her!"
