livewell’s BACK PHYSIO
Back pain is a personalised experience.
As you might have already know, back pain episodes can be recurrent and frustrating. Each and every one’s experience of back pain is unique to that individual. This means the same injury can cause excruciating pain for some, while others feel little pain. This is why Livewell physio for back pain actively listen to our clients, thoroughly assess their symptoms and effectively plan for recovery, so that they can return to previous level of activities as soon as possible.
Different causes of your back pain may be:
Muscle strain
Facet joint sprain
Deconditioned spinal or lower leg muscles
Repetitive movement injury
Unhealthy movement patterns
Biomechanical factors related to other parts of the body
Inappropriate physical activity levels
Pregnancy-induced pain or hormonal changes
Anatomical or structural spine conditions
Mechanical incident or trauma (during sports, post-fall or motor vehicle accidents)
