Lower back pain is one of the most common medical complaints, and one of the most effectively treated by chiropractic care. Dr. Bromberg identifies whether your pain stems from disc issues, muscle imbalance, joint dysfunction, or nerve compression, then creates a targeted treatment plan.
A student-centric neighborhood where Boston University meets a vibrant international community. Allston's young population stays active with cycling, rock climbing, and pickup sports, but limited parking and a walk-everywhere lifestyle also contribute to overuse injuries. Allston patients who have struggled with lower back pain often find that the difference here is the diagnosis. Dr. Bromberg identifies precisely what's driving your lower back pain before a single Muscle & Tendon Therapy session begins, just 8 minutes from Allston.

Every treatment plan at Bromberg Chiropractic begins with a thorough evaluation, not an assumption. For muscle & tendon therapy, that means combining precise adjustments, soft tissue therapy, and targeted rehabilitation into a plan that evolves as you improve. Throughout your care, Dr. Bromberg personally treats you at every visit, and your plan is adjusted on real progress, not a fixed package. We're just 8 minutes from Allston.
Local context matters here. The college-age population in Allston deals with poor ergonomics, heavy lifting during move-in seasons, and sports injuries from recreational athletics year-round. These everyday demands are exactly what turns a minor ache into a persistent problem when they go unaddressed, and they're a big part of why a local, individualized approach works better than generic advice.

Dr. Bromberg uses Active Release Technique, a patented movement-based system that targets damaged or restricted soft tissue. By applying tension while the patient moves through specific ranges of motion, adhesions break down, scar tissue releases, and normal function returns to muscles, tendons, ligaments, and nerves.
