BACK PAIN

BACK PAIN ?

Back Pain can be caused by a number of different things, including:

·         poor posture

·         inherited spinal deformity

·         bending or twisting awkwardly

·         overstretching

·         standing for long periods

·         lifting or carrying objects incorrectly

A physiotherapist will look at your individual situation. As well as treating the problem, they may also suggest things you can do on a daily basis to help relieve pain and discomfort. They may also give you advice about how to prevent the injury re-occurring.

For example, if you have lower back pain, maintaining good posture and doing core stability exercises to strengthen your stomach and lower back muscles may help.
