Back Pain

With over 25 years of experience, our expert team support people living with life-changing conditions—empowering recovery, independence, and long-term outcomes through compassionate, tailored care.
What is back pain?
Back pain can interfere with daily activities, sleep, work, and overall wellbeing. Physiotherapy aims to relieve pain, restore movement, and prevent recurrence through targeted, evidence-based interventions.
Back pain may be caused by:
- Muscle strain or ligament sprain
- Poor posture or prolonged sitting
- Herniated or degenerative discs
- Arthritis or spinal stenosis
- Trauma or whiplash
- Stress and tension
These factors can lead to stiffness, nerve irritation, and reduced mobility, often affecting the ability to bend, lift, or sit comfortably.
At Physio Matters, our Back Pain Rehabilitation Programme is designed to address the root causes of pain and support long-term recovery. It may include:
- Comprehensive assessment to identify contributing factors
- Manual therapy – soft tissue release, joint mobilisation, and spinal techniques
- Core strengthening and stabilisation exercises
- Postural correction and ergonomic advice
- Education on movement habits and self-management
- Dry needling or deep tissue release for muscle tension
- Functional training to support daily tasks like lifting, bending, and walking
Our approach is holistic and tailored to your lifestyle, helping you move more freely and confidently.
If you or someone you care for is experiencing back pain, we’re here to help. Contact us to book an assessment or speak to one of our team.
