Back pain can develop for many reasons, including muscle strain, repetitive activities, prolonged sitting, sports injuries, lifting, reduced mobility, or changes affecting the spine and surrounding tissues.

Some people experience short-term back pain after an injury or unusual activity, while others may have recurring or persistent symptoms that interfere with work, exercise, sleep, or daily movement.

At RehabDNA, we begin by understanding your symptoms, history, movement, strength, mobility, and functional limitations. This helps us develop a physiotherapy approach based on your individual needs and rehabilitation goals.

If your back pain is affecting your everyday life, a professional physiotherapy assessment can help determine appropriate next steps.

Common Back Pain Problems We Help With

Lower Back Pain

Pain and stiffness in the lower back can affect sitting, standing, walking, lifting, exercise, and everyday movement.

Muscle Strain

Sudden movements, lifting, overuse, or physical activity can place stress on the muscles supporting the back and contribute to pain and stiffness.

Sciatica & Radiating Pain

Some back conditions can cause symptoms that travel from the lower back into the buttock or leg. Physiotherapy assessment can help identify movement and functional factors associated with these symptoms.

Disc-Related Back Pain

Bulging or herniated discs may be associated with back pain and, in some cases, symptoms extending into the leg. Rehabilitation should be individualized according to the person’s presentation.

Back Stiffness & Restricted Mobility

Reduced spinal, hip, or surrounding joint mobility can make bending, turning, walking, or other everyday movements more difficult.

Posture-Related Back Discomfort

Long periods of sitting, repetitive positions, and certain movement habits may contribute to back discomfort and stiffness.

Sports & Activity-Related Back Pain

Running, training, lifting, twisting, and other physical activities can place additional demands on the lower back and surrounding muscles.

Post-Surgical Rehabilitation

Following appropriate medical guidance, physiotherapy may support mobility, strength, movement, and functional recovery after surgery.

When Should You See a Physiotherapist for Back Pain?

Consider a physiotherapy assessment when back pain or stiffness is affecting your normal movement, work, exercise, sleep, or daily activities, particularly when symptoms persist or repeatedly return.

Some back symptoms require medical assessment rather than routine physiotherapy. Seek urgent medical attention for serious or rapidly worsening symptoms such as significant weakness, loss of bladder or bowel control, numbness around the groin/saddle area, or back pain following significant trauma.
