What causes back pain?
In most cases it is not possible to identify the exact cause of back pain. It is important to know that any kind of structural damage is rare. Many physiological or psychological factors can cause back and neck pain and often a combination of these are involved.
Sometimes there are specific causes for spinal pain, especially when there is leg or arm pain, pins and needles or numbness too. This can be caused by irritation or compression of the nerves in the spine.
How can physiotherapy help?
Our physiotherapists are experienced in treating all types and causes of spinal pains, so can provide you with advice and exercises on how to keep active to aid your recovery. Training in other treatments such as manual therapy and acupuncture can also assist these active measures to ease your pain and discomfort. Everyone one is different so there is no one single posture, activity or exercise you should adopt, this is where we can help. What we do know is that sustaining the same posture for long periods can stress our spinal joints and cause aches and pains– so regular movement is key.
The best way to prevent re-occurrences is to regain mobility and strength not only in your spine but your whole body. This will give you the ability and confidence to get back to normal living.
