Back Pain
Our goal is to treat your back pain properly and prevent it from returning – so you can move freely, sleep better and enjoy life without fear of pain.
What Is Back Pain?
Back pain is one of the most common complaints we see here at The Body Diagnostic. It can come on gradually or suddenly, and it can stem from a variety of causes. In many cases, people don’t realise just how much it’s affecting their quality of life – until it starts limiting their ability to move, sleep or enjoy time with family and friends.
There’s no single cause of back pain. Some people experience discomfort due to disc issues, such as herniations or bulges. Others struggle with muscle strains, joint dysfunction or problems rooted in core weakness. A sedentary lifestyle is another major contributor – especially for those who spend long hours sitting at a desk or driving.
Regardless of the source, one thing is clear: back pain can impact your ability to function and enjoy daily life. That’s why understanding the true root cause is essential to solving it, rather than just masking the symptoms.
What Are The Symptoms Of Back Pain?
Back pain doesn’t always show up the same way for everyone. Some people feel a dull ache that lingers all day, while others experience sharp, stabbing pain in the lower back. Common symptoms we see at the clinic include:
- Stiffness or tightness in the lower back
- Discomfort while sitting or standing for too long
- Difficulty getting out of bed or rising from the sofa
- Pain that flares up during walking or exercise
- Sleep disruption caused by back discomfort
Over time, these symptoms can limit your independence. You might start avoiding restaurants, social occasions with friends, or family gatherings simply because sitting for too long becomes unbearable. For active individuals, the gym or a long walk can become off-limits for fear of triggering pain. And poor sleep – often overlooked – can have a knock-on effect on your mood, energy levels and recovery.
What Is Our Approach To Fixing/Treating Back Pain?
At The Body Diagnostic, our approach goes far beyond temporary fixes or generic exercise printouts.
Most of the people who come to see us have already tried a handful of things. Painkillers from the GP. One-off massage sessions. A lone physio appointment that didn’t get to the root of the problem. Some may have even turned to YouTube for stretches or tried heat packs and injections. In more extreme cases, they’ve been told surgery is their only option.
We take a different route.
First, we identify the root cause, not just the location of the pain. It’s common to experience symptoms in one area that are caused by dysfunction elsewhere in the body. That’s why we perform a full assessment before beginning treatment.
Next, we use hands-on manual therapy to ease tension, restore mobility, and improve how the body moves as a whole. But we don’t stop there.
We then build a structured, progressive rehab plan, tailored to your body, your goals, and your lifestyle. This includes core strength training, postural corrections, and clear lifestyle advice to support long-term relief – not just short-term comfort.
Our goal is to treat your back pain properly and prevent it from returning – so you can move freely, sleep better and enjoy life without fear of pain.
