Back Pain

What are some things that may cause back pain?

Struggling with back pain can affect every part of your life. Whether it’s a sharp ache or a constant, nagging discomfort, back pain can make even the simplest tasks feel difficult. Fortunately, physical therapy offers a safe, effective, and natural way to alleviate pain, improve mobility, and help you get back to living pain-free. 

Back pain is one of the most common health issues people face. It may come from muscle strain, a herniated disc, arthritis, poor posture, or an injury. The pain may be acute (short-term) or chronic (long-term), and it can affect the lower back, upper back, or even the neck. Symptoms often include discomfort, stiffness, limited movement, or shooting pain that radiates down the legs or arms. 

Though back pain is common, it doesn’t have to control your life. With the right treatment and guidance, you can reduce pain, restore function, and avoid long-term damage. 

Exercises and Treatments

When it comes to your care we believe in a personalized, hands-on approach to back pain treatment. The goal is not just to relieve pain but to address its underlying causes so you can prevent it from returning. Some of the exercises and treatments we use include: 

  • Stretching and Strengthening Exercises: Specific exercises to stretch tight muscles, strengthen your core and back muscles, and improve flexibility. 
  • Manual Therapy: Skilled hands-on techniques to release muscle tension, improve joint mobility, and reduce pain. 
  • Posture Training: Educating you on how to sit, stand, and move properly to avoid strain on your back and prevent further injury. 
  • Ergonomic Advice: Guidance on setting up your workspace or daily activities to prevent further strain and promote better spinal health. 

We take a comprehensive and personalized approach, combining these treatments to create a plan that fits your specific needs and goals.
