Understanding Back Pain
Back pain is one of the most common reasons people seek physical therapy. It can affect the lower back, mid-back, or upper back and may be caused by injury, overuse, poor posture, stress, or underlying conditions.
Some back pain comes on suddenly, while other cases develop gradually over time. No matter the cause, ignoring it can often make symptoms worse.
Common Causes of Back Pain We Treat
Our physical therapists regularly help patients with back pain related to:
- Muscle strains or ligament sprains
- Disc issues, including bulges or herniations
- Poor posture or prolonged sitting
- Sports or workout injuries
- Work-related or lifting injuries
- Arthritis or age-related changes
- Post-surgical stiffness or weakness
- Pain following an auto accident
How Physical Therapy Helps Back Pain
Physical therapy is one of the most effective, non-invasive ways to treat back pain. Rather than masking symptoms, we focus on addressing the underlying problem.
Your treatment plan may include:
- Targeted strengthening and mobility exercises
- Manual therapy to reduce stiffness and tension
- Postural and movement retraining
- Core stability work to support your spine
- Dry needling or other pain-relief techniques when appropriate
- Education to help prevent future episodes
Our goal is not just to get you out of pain, but to help you stay active and confident long term.
