Seek help from a Highett physio today
Odds are, you’ll experience back pain at least once in your life – it’s estimated that 70-90% of Australians will suffer from back pain at some stage, with around 16% suffering right now.
Are you suffering from:
- Muscle aches?
- Lower back pain, or pain down your leg?
- Tingling or Numbness?
- Difficulty reaching or bending?
What are some causes of back pain?
The causes of back pain are many and varied.
As the central pillar of your entire body, back pain can completely immobilise you – if you experience any of these problems, contact a physio for back pain as soon as possible.
Injury
Lifting heavy weights, poor warm-up routines and accidents can all contribute to a back injury.
If you’ve recently suffered from a back injury, we suggest getting help from a physio as soon as possible.
Without timely intervention by a physiotherapist who can help solve back pain, you might end up suffering from…
Chronic pain
Oftentimes, pain from a back injury can persist long after the injury.
Previous back injuries that weren’t treated by a physiotherapist at the time can heal improperly. This can lead to recurring back pain years down the line, severely restricting your lifestyle and work.
Have you forgotten what living pain-free feels like? You don’t have to put up with it any longer – get in touch with a physio for back pain to get on the path to recovery.
Physiotherapy for back pain: more than just pain relief
When you suffer back pain, there’s so much more involved than just ‘waiting it out’. Even when back pain resolves itself, you’re still at an elevated risk of future back pain:
- The affected parts of your back may not have fully recovered
- Your back maybe left weaker than it was before, especially if you do not complete rehab
You face a high chance of remission without physiotherapy
In addition to relieving your pain, a physio also prevents your back pain from ever returning.
We prescribe tailored treatment routines that focus on rebuilding strength in your back and shoring up the muscles surrounding it.
In addition to ensuring your back heals properly, this also provides additional cushioning and support.
For athletes and labourers, we also look at how we can take the load off your back. We evaluate your posture and technique, and prescribe supports and tools that protect your muscles, bones and ligaments.
