Low Back Pain – How Can Physio Help?

​Low Back Pain is one of the most frequent problems we see. It can range from chronic mild stiffness to acute, severe, debilitating pain. We are able to treat all forms of back pain, even when it is at its most acute. We perform a thorough assessment to identify the underlying cause of your symptoms & then utilise appropriate treatment techniques to reduce your pain & improve your function. In the majority of cases we can achieve some immediate relief of your symptoms within our first session.

The symptoms associated with back pain can often create a lot of anxiety & stress, making you uncertain about what you should or shouldn’t do & fearful of making it worse. We are passionate about educating you on your condition & reassuring you about what activities are safe to perform. We aim to provide you with a thorough understanding of what is causing your symptoms & empower you with knowledge so you know how to help yourself.

Things we commonly do to help with Low Back Pain:

  • Assess the nature of the pain and come up with a plan to manage it accordingly.
  • Hands-on treatment to reduce pain and free up restricted movements.
  • Find which movements are going to be helpful and which need to be avoided early on.
  • Figure out what has caused the condition and make a plan to prevent it re-occuring.
  • Work on strength and flexibility in the body for the long-term to reduce the susceptibility of this happening again.

Low Back Pain is one of the most common things we see in the clinic so we’re equipped with the experience to help with any presentation, whether it be a disc bulge, sciatica, a joint sprain or muscle strain. We often get great results in pain reduction quite quickly and strive to get people exercising to prevent future injuries.
