Find Relief and Restore Function with Expert Back Pain Care

Back pain is one of the most common reasons people seek medical care, affecting individuals of all ages and lifestyles. Whether caused by injury, poor posture, repetitive strain, or underlying medical conditions, back pain can significantly impact your daily life, making everyday tasks challenging. At Vitality Physical Therapy, we specialize in treating back pain through personalized, evidence-based physical therapy techniques that help reduce pain, restore mobility, and improve overall function.

Comprehensive Back Pain Treatment

We understand that back pain can be complex, and no two individuals experience it the same way. That’s why our approach to back pain treatment is individualized to address the root causes of your discomfort and tailor a plan that meets your specific needs.

At Vitality Physical Therapy, we believe in taking a holistic approach to back pain treatment, focusing not only on alleviating symptoms but also on restoring long-term function and preventing future issues.

1. Comprehensive Evaluation: We begin with a thorough assessment of your medical history, lifestyle, and movement patterns. This allows us to pinpoint the root cause of your pain and tailor a treatment plan that addresses both the symptoms and underlying factors.

2. Manual Therapy: Our skilled therapists use hands-on techniques such as joint mobilizations, soft tissue manipulation, and trigger point release to alleviate pain, improve mobility, and reduce muscle tension.

3. Exercise Therapy: A custom exercise program will target your specific condition, focusing on strengthening weak muscles, improving flexibility, and restoring balance. Our exercises help support proper posture, prevent re-injury, and build long-term resilience.

4. Postural and Ergonomic Education: We’ll work with you to identify habits, activities, or positions that may be contributing to your pain. We’ll teach you how to adjust your posture and perform daily tasks in a way that minimizes strain on your back.

5. Pain Management Strategies: We combine physical therapy with techniques like heat/cold therapy, electrical stimulation, and gentle stretching to manage pain and promote healing in the affected areas.

6. Education and Prevention: A key part of our approach is education. We’ll empower you with the tools and knowledge to manage your back pain on your own and prevent future episodes. You’ll gain a deeper understanding of your body mechanics, so you can take an active role in your recovery and long-term health.

Common Causes of Back Pain We Treat:

  • Muscle Strain & Sprains – Often caused by overuse, heavy lifting, or poor posture.
  • Herniated or Bulging Discs – When the discs in your spine press on nerves, causing pain, tingling, or numbness.
  • Sciatica – Pain that radiates down the leg due to pressure on the sciatic nerve.
  • Spinal Stenosis – Narrowing of the spinal canal, leading to nerve compression and discomfort.
  • Degenerative Disc Disease – Age-related changes in the spine that can lead to chronic back pain.
  • Postural Dysfunction – Misalignments and poor posture that lead to muscle imbalances and pain.
  • Sacroiliac Joint Dysfunction – Pain in the lower back or pelvis due to dysfunction of the sacroiliac joint.
  • Chronic Back Pain – Long-term pain, often resulting from an unresolved injury or ongoing strain.
