Back Pain

Physical therapy can be very effective in addressing back pain as it focuses on reducing pain and improving function through specialized exercises and techniques.

Here are some ways physical therapy can help alleviate back pain:

• Pain Relief: Physical therapists are trained to use various pain-relieving techniques such as heat or ice application, manual therapy, or massage.
• Strengthening Exercises: Physical therapy can help strengthen the muscles that support the spine, particularly the core muscles. This can help reduce stress on the back and relieve pain.
• Flexibility and Mobility: Physical therapy can help address mobility and flexibility issues that may contribute to back pain.
• Posture Correction: Physical therapists can teach you proper posture and body mechanics to reduce the strain on your back.
