Private Back Pain Physiotherapy Delivered to Your Home
Common Symptoms of Back Pain
Back pain may begin suddenly after lifting, twisting or exercise, or develop gradually through prolonged sitting, reduced activity, arthritis or repeated strain.
Symptoms can vary from localised aching and stiffness to sharp pain, muscle spasm or discomfort travelling into the buttock or leg. A thorough physiotherapy assessment helps identify the factors contributing to your symptoms and guides the most appropriate treatment plan.
