Whether it causes you mild discomfort or serious debilitating pain here at Leeds Physiotherapy we are able to help. The aim of physiotherapy treatment will be to reduce your pain, improve your posture and restore normal movement. Some of the more common causes of back pain that we treat include:

Potentially back pain can be very serious and therefore your physiotherapists will start by completing a thorough and detailed assessment. This will enable them to diagnose the cause of the pain and rule out any serious underlying pathology.
Your physiotherapist will explain to you the causes of your back pain and what you can do in your daily routine to try and combat the cause of the pain. They will design an individually tailored treatment plan to meet your needs. This may include some of the excellent services which we provide at Leeds Physiotherapy such as acupuncture, electrotherapy and core stability exercises.
