Back Pain
What is Back Pain?
Back pain is a common condition that affects a large proportion of the population each year. In fact it’s considered that most people will encounter some form of back pain throughout their lives, whether it is an acute spell to chronic episodes/conditions. Symptoms can occur from a wide range of causes, but often something that can start spontaneously. There are several structures around the spine that can lead to pain, examples include; intervertebral discs, muscle strains, ligament sprains, joint degeneration, spinal nerves (e.g. sciatica) or perhaps a combination of the above.
What to expect
During your first appointment at Elements Physiotherapy, we will discuss your symptoms to develop a clinical picture of what may be contributing to your back pain.
