Pain that lasts longer than three months is called chronic pain. If you are looking for chronic pain treatment in Germantown, WI, you have probably tried rest, pills, or waiting already. At Yentz Family Chiropractic we look for what keeps the pain going. Then we build a plan around how you move and what you need to do each day, not only the pain number.
A few common reasons:
Not every cause is in the spine, and some conditions need care outside our office. We will tell you which applies to you.
Long-lasting pain often shows up in the low back or neck first. We treat both. See our pages on back pain and neck pain in Germantown for details on each. We also see people with leg pain that has lingered, which often links back to sciatica or a disc problem.
These include chiropractic adjustments, soft tissue work, home exercises, and spinal decompression for disc-related pain. For certain soft tissue problems, such as tendon pain, we may suggest SoftWave Therapy. It is not right for everyone, and we do not recommend it without an exam. Our chronic pain page explains our approach.
We watch pain, but we also watch movement and daily life. Can you sleep, walk, lift, or work more easily than you could a month ago? If progress stalls, we look at the plan again instead of repeating the same care.
Pain that lasts a long time can make you move less, and then everything gets stiffer. Short walks, gentle stretches, and steady sleep help many people. Try not to do too much on a good day and then pay for it on the next. We can show you how to build up slowly, based on what your exam shows.
Tell your medical doctor about pain that keeps getting worse, pain with unexplained weight loss or fever, or pain that wakes you at night and does not ease with a change of position. These can have causes that need medical care. We would rather send you to the right place early than have you wait.

We cannot promise a cure. Many people improve when the cause is a joint, disc, or muscle problem. Results depend on the person and the condition.

No. Do not stop any prescribed medicine without talking to the doctor who prescribed it.
