What is back pain?
Back pain is a highly prevalent issue, impacting as many as 80% of the population at some stage in their lives. Although the root cause of low back pain is typically not severe, with the majority of patients recovering within six weeks, it remains a substantial source of discomfort in the community, significantly affecting people’s daily lives.
Causes of Back Pain
Back pain is commonly caused by irritation or impaired function of the bones, joints, ligaments, or muscles in your back. One such common cause is vertebral dysfunction, which occurs when the spinal vertebrae compress or irritate the delicate nerve structures of your lower back.
Due to the complex nature of the amount of structures involved, it is important to treat the root cause of the problem, rather than just the symptoms. Whether it is related to posture, lifting technique, core stability, or other external issues, NDPE considers all the contributing factors in addressing long-term solutions.
Treatment Options for Back Pain
In physiotherapy, the treatment of back pain is geared towards restoring function to poorly moving spinal joints, along with addressing muscle tension and muscle strength. This comprehensive approach aims towards improved movement, reduced pain, and decreased nerve irritation.
We tailor treatments to suit each individual case, which often includes spinal and soft tissue mobilisation, core stabilisation advice, strengthening exercises, stretching, and heat/cold therapy. Contact us to book your comprehensive lower back consultation, where we aim to identify the precise cause of your back pain and begin a course of corrective care immediately! Additionally, we provide posture braces, posture pro, and strapping services if they are deemed appropriate for your condition.
