Low back pain is one of the most common conditions for which people seek medical attention. About 80% of people will experience low back pain at some point in the life. Common causes of low back pain are muscle and ligament strains. But low back pain may also be cause by herniated discs in the spine, poor working posture, trauma due to falls, and bone and joint diseases among other reasons.
Sciatica is back pain that radiates down into the buttock, thigh and leg on one side.
Physiotherapy for Back pain/ Sciatica:
After an assessment to determine the cause of back pain is carried out, treatment aims to reduce pain, inflammation and correct the postures contributing to back pain. Strengthening of the core muscles is carried out to prevent a recurrence and to maintain improved states. In severe cases, back braces may be provided.
