Go to a different Chiropractor. They may be naturalistic cooks most of the time, but this is one thing they can actually fix.

Been there, done that.

ChadTower:

That depends on the cause.  If he has an acute injury the chiro won't be able to help him until that is remediated.  My chiro does have the ability to send people for stuff like MRIs, though.  He got me one to evaluate my lower back before the last season of football we played.  So if the regular doctor is too cheap to have that done the chiro may not be.  The catch is that the insurance company will come down hard on you if you have a chiro refer an expensive test and they don't find anything.

Ummon:
As Chad said, core strength and all. But to address an injury, relaxation of the area is required. I recommend the acupuncture, but just on your own, instead of backward stretching, a la the yoga poses referenced above, try laying face down over a ball or something large and curved to get some natural traction across the area.

ChadTower:

...laying face... across balls... too many jokes... head asplode.   :dizzy:
