Causes of Back Pain

Back pain, affecting up to 80% of people at some point, can significantly disrupt daily life. Though usually not serious, most patients recover within 6 weeks. Common causes include issues with bones, joints, ligaments, or muscles in the back. A typical example is vertebral dysfunction, where spinal vertebrae compress or irritate nerves, leading to discomfort. Symptoms might include stiffness, limited movement, or sharp pain. Physiotherapy plays a crucial role in recovery, employing techniques to relieve these symptoms and improve function.

Back Pain Physio Assessment

During the assessment, your Physiotherapist will conduct a comprehensive evaluation, including a detailed history and specific orthopaedic, neurological, and spinal tests, to accurately identify the cause of your lower back pain. This process may involve posture analysis and flexibility assessments, ensuring a thorough understanding of your condition. Your active participation, by sharing symptoms and lifestyle details, is vital. Following this assessment, a personalised treatment plan tailored to your unique needs will be developed.

We emphasise a collaborative approach, ensuring that you are actively involved in your recovery journey.
