Back Pain Treatment

Back pain is a highly common condition that can severely impact your daily life, ranging from a dull, persistent ache to sharp, debilitating spikes of pain. At Dr Physio Clinic, we focus on identifying the underlying mechanical or postural faults contributing to your pain rather than just treating the symptoms.

What are the common symptoms?

• Dull, aching sensation in the lower back\n• Stabbing or shooting pain that can radiate down the leg\n• Inability to stand up straight without pain\n• Decreased range of motion and reduced flexibility

How do we treat this condition?

We employ a comprehensive approach combining manual therapy to restore joint mobility, soft tissue release techniques, and core strengthening exercises. Modalities like heat/cold therapy and electrical stimulation may be used initially to manage acute pain, followed by a personalized exercise prescription to build spinal stability.

When should you see a physiotherapist?

Consult us if your back pain lasts more than a few days, is severe, doesn't improve with rest, or is accompanied by numbness, tingling, or weakness in your legs.
