Winter in Mississauga has a way of stirring up lower back pain. We sit more when the days are short and the sidewalks are icy. Then, without much warning, we’re shoveling a heavy driveway in Port Credit or lifting bags of salt in Erin Mills. It’s a big jump in demand for a body that’s been moving less.
At Kore~Energy Chiropractic, we know lower back pain isn’t just uncomfortable—it’s the way it changes your whole day. It can make work harder, sleep lighter, and family time feel limited. If your back has been “talking” to you more this season, you’re not alone.
Why Winter Can Flare Up Low Back Pain
Lower back pain is often a mix of how your spine is moving, how your muscles are supporting you, and how your nervous system is handling stress.
In winter, a few common patterns show up:
- Sitting more can tighten hips and strain the lower back
- Cold weather often makes muscles feel stiffer and less flexible
- Shoveling snow and sudden lifting can overload the low back fast
- Slips on ice can trigger protective tension that doesn’t fully let go
Sometimes it’s a sharp catch. Sometimes it’s a dull ache that just won’t quit. Either way, it’s a sign your body needs support—not just a temporary patch.
How We Help You Get To The Root Of It
At Kore~Energy Chiropractic, we take a nervous-system-focused approach. We look for areas where your spine isn’t moving well or where your body is compensating, and we work to reduce interference so your body can do what it’s designed to do—heal, adapt, and function better.
Chiropractic care can help by:
- Improving spinal movement so your body isn’t “stuck”
- Reducing tension patterns that keep the low back guarded
- Supporting nerve communication so your body can settle and recover
- Helping you move more comfortably through daily life
Support That Goes Beyond The Table
Healing usually isn’t just one thing. It’s the combination of in-office care and small changes that make your body feel safer and more supported day to day.
We’ll tailor your plan to real life in Mississauga, which may include:
- Simple posture and workstation tweaks for commuting and desk time
- Home care stretches that fit your schedule (and actually feel doable)
- Safer lifting tips for snow, groceries, kids, and everyday demands
- Guidance for reducing stress patterns that keep your body “on”
