Spinal Pain

PT for Spinal Pain 

Physical therapists are trained professionals who use targeted interventions to help patients recover. According to The Guide to Physical Therapist Practice, these interventions are purposeful treatments designed to produce changes based on the diagnosis, prognosis, and patient goals.

Comprehensive Evaluation

Your physical therapist will perform a detailed assessment to determine the cause of your back pain, including:

– Spinal Examination – A series of movements and tests to identify the probable cause of your pain.

– Strength Testing – Resisted movements to detect weakness or muscle imbalances.

– Flexibility Assessment – Identifying tight muscles that can affect movement and increase the risk of injury.

– Posture Analysis and Activity Review – Observing daily activities, posture, and body mechanics that may contribute to your condition.

Conservative Treatment Approach

Treatment for back and disc problems begins conservatively to avoid aggravating the injury. This includes:

– Rest and inflammation control.

– Increasing blood flow for healing.

– Gradual stretching and strengthening to restore flexibility and stability.

Each program is customized to address the specific cause of your symptoms. A tailored program ensures safe and effective recovery while avoiding further injury.
