Urbandale Clinic Targets “Silent Epidemic” of Lower Back Pain with Structural Approach

Urbandale Clinic Targets "Silent Epidemic" of Lower Back Pain with Structural Approach
"Whether it’s a golfer at the Urbandale Golf and Country Club or a parent playing with their children on the floor, your quality of life depends on a stable foundation. When the pelvis is tilted or the core is imbalanced, the spine is forced to overcompensate until it eventually breaks down. We don't want to just help our patients feel better; we want to help them live better by restoring the neurological bridge between the brain and the body." — Dr. Von, DC
Dr. Von (DC) and Levels Family Chiropractic are tackling Urbandale’s "silent epidemic" of lower back pain. With 6+ years of experience and Webster Technique training, Dr. Von rejects "masking tape" fixes like meds to target root causes like Pelvic Imbalance. Using foundational alignment and exercises like the Bird-Dog, the clinic helps residents reclaim functional freedom for activities like golfing at the Urbandale Golf and Country Club.

URBANDALE, IA - Levels Family Chiropractic is redefining the treatment of lower back pain for Urbandale residents by shifting the focus from symptom management to structural restoration. Led by Dr. Von, a chiropractor with over 6 years of experience and specialized Webster Technique training, the clinic is sounding the alarm on a "silent epidemic" driven by sedentary lifestyles and "Lower Cross Syndrome".

"While back pain is common, it is certainly not normal," says Dr. Von. "Most traditional treatments act like masking tape over a check-engine light—they stop the pain temporarily but leave the underlying mechanical engine smoking".

The Foundation of Relief The clinic’s approach centers on the Pelvic Foundation. Using a skyscraper analogy, Dr. Von explains that if the foundation (the pelvis) is tilted from excessive sitting, the "windows" of the spine will eventually crack. This structural shift creates shearing forces on the L4 and L5 vertebrae, leading to nerve irritation and chronic discomfort.

Clinical Expertise & Local Success Dr. Von’s 6+ years of experience and Webster training provide a unique advantage in identifying pelvic and sacral misalignments. This expertise was pivotal for patients like "Mike," a local golfer sidelined for two years by persistent sciatica. While traditional injections failed, a deep dive into Mike’s Sacroiliac (SI) Joint revealed a "locked" foundation. Six weeks of targeted stabilization under Dr. Von’s care allowed him to return to the fairways of the Urbandale Golf and Country Club.

The "Levels" Difference Levels Family Chiropractic utilizes a 30-minute diagnostic deep dive, incorporating:

  • Postural Distortion Analysis: Identifying how the body compensates for gravity.
  • Gait Analysis: Evaluating how walking patterns stress lower joints.
  • Nervous System Testing: Locating communication breakdowns between the brain and spine.

Beyond adjustments, the clinic promotes the "Levels" Lifestyle, which includes anti-inflammatory nutritional guidance and the Bird-Dog exercise—the "gold standard" for building a natural weight belt of muscle.
