About Back Pain
Understanding Back Pain
Back pain is one of the most common reasons people see a healthcare provider, and it covers a wide range of causes. It can come from muscles and ligaments, from the discs and joints of the spine, from nerve irritation, or from the way you move, sit and lift day to day. It can arrive suddenly after a specific incident, or build slowly over months.
Because the causes differ so much, so does what helps. A strain from lifting is a different problem from a disc that is pressing on a nerve, and the two are not managed the same way.
Back pain is listed among the areas Dr. Paula Newmark, D.C. focuses on at her Jupiter practice, where she has cared for patients since 1998.
What patients describe
Symptoms people mention when they come in:
- Aching or stiffness across the lower back
- Pain that worsens with sitting or standing
- Sharp pain on bending or lifting
- Muscle spasm or tightness
- Pain that limits everyday movement
- Discomfort that disturbs sleep
How we help
Back Pain at our Jupiter office
A first visit starts with your patient history and symptoms, followed by a thorough chiropractic exam assessing range of motion, muscle strength and more. If you have had x-rays or MRIs taken, bring them; Dr. Newmark reviews existing imaging and may prescribe x-rays if they are needed to assess your spine.
You then receive a report of findings: a detailed analysis of the problem that brought you in and how to address it, taking into account your current lifestyle, your goals and the challenges in the way. Treatment follows from that conversation, not before it.
When to seek medical care first
Back pain with loss of bladder or bowel control, numbness around the groin, progressive leg weakness, unexplained weight loss or fever needs prompt medical assessment rather than a chiropractic appointment.

What our patients say
In our patients' own words
A few of the reviews shared by people treated at our Jupiter office.
Dr. Newmark has the ability to truly feel what her patients are experiencing and a keen understanding of how to treat each one individually. She is a true healer and has really helped me overcome back challenges, I highly recommend her.
Dr. Paula Newmark is amazing! Previous chiropractors made me "sore" from a visit. I have been rear ended three times in 7 years and I only go when needed. She isn't one of those "come every week" type. She is come when you need me. I can't thank her enough for her caring and talent.
My treatment with Dr Newmark has had terrific results. Dr Newmark has helped me get back to a normal life of golfing and doing things I haven't done in years.
Dr Newmark is a true partner on your journey to better chiropractic health.
She is an excellent communicator, and she has truly helped me with my chiropractic needs/health.
I refer to her time and time again to anyone who will listen to me!
