Have you ever been diagnosed with any of the following Low Back Pain conditions?
· Disc bulge or herniation
· Degenerative disc
· Spondylosis
· Sacro-Iliac disorders
· Degenerative change
· Poor core strength
This may be your first episode of back pain or you may have had it for some time. Whatever your experience with low back pain you have arrived at the right place to receive the best treatment.
It is not an uncommon condition and one that can prevent you from managing the simplest of tasks, and often prevents you getting back to the activities you love.
We have extensive experience in the assessment, treatment and rehabilitation of low back pain. Our therapists have a wide range of manual therapy skills and knowledge regarding effective spinal rehabilitation.
Our philosophy is more than just getting you pain free. Although that’s our first goal, as quickly as possible.
For really successful treatment of your low back or sciatica issue it’s about keeping you out of pain for the long term. We give you the confidence and ability to challenge yourself at whatever activity you choose without fear of re-injury.
Three Stages of Treatment
Pain is often the last symptom to arrive and the first to go. This often tricks the owner of an injury (you) into stopping treatment before the underlying causes have either completely resolved or you are in control of them. Without getting to this point there is a risk of re-injury.
As a result we look at your treatment over three phases to get the best result
Listen to how your problem happened and how it is affecting you.
Posture and if it influences your symptoms.
Low back, thoracic & hip mobility.
Individual joint movements at low back and SIJ.
Muscle strength in your core and hips.
Nerve testing in the lower limbs.
Specific to you.
Understand what is going on and why.
Personnel and targeted treatment to get you out of pain using a combination of manual therapy, education and exercise.
Get you moving well as soon as possible.
Prevent recurrence of your injury
Lifestyle, strength and exercise programs
Building confidence and resilience by putting together a program for you to get the results you want
