Back pain is one of the most common reasons people miss work, reduce their activity or simply suffer in silence.
Whether it’s a dull ache, sharp spasm or something that comes and goes, back pain can affect every part of your life from your ability to sleep, move, work and enjoy to the things you love.
As physiotherapists, we see it every day; people who wait weeks or even months, hoping the pain will resolve with time. Or they assume their first step must be seeing a doctor.
While general practitioners play an important role, many types of back pain can be more effectively assessed and managed by a physiotherapist right from the start.
Back pain isn’t always caused by one dramatic event. Often, it’s the result of multiple contributing factors that build up over time.
Without a healthy back, even simple everyday activities like walking, bending or standing become difficult or painful.
Maintaining good back health becomes increasingly important as we age, not only for mobility and comfort but also for safety; weakened core strength and poor spinal function significantly increase the risk of falls, which are a leading cause of injury-related death in older adults.

Not all shoulder pain is the same. This guide helps you recognise when to seek professional advice and what steps to take next.
Our experienced and knowledgeable physiotherapists will examine :
Your range and quality of movement.
Areas of tenderness, muscle spasms or potential sources of pain.
Your muscle strength and tone.
This process will help identify exactly what is causing your pain.
We use the latest medical research and technology to produce a bespoke treatment plan to get you back fit and active doing all the things that your pain is stopping you doing.
Each treatment aims to gently and progressively get you moving again without pain, as quickly as possible, to allow you to get back to normal and start doing the things you love.
We will give you a structured rehabilitation exercise program, to help break the cycle and prevent the problem from returning.
This ultimately makes you stronger and less likely to reinjure or reaggravate the issue through better stability, strength, functional resilience and confidence.
