Why do we suffer from Lower back pain ?
Our spines are not designed for sitting down at a desk or in a car, or for enduring repetitive movements for several hours at a time. This is why most people will experience back pain at some point in their life.
Lower Back pain can have many different causes
- Accident
- Injury by moving or twisting in an awkward manner
- Poor posture
- Stiffness and lack of flexibility caused by stress
- Repetitive strain
Depending on the cause, symptoms can develop straight away, or take weeks or even months to appear. The severity of symptoms also differs and can range from tenderness and stiffness to severe pain that hinders people from carrying out everyday activities. They may last a few hours or days, or become a chronic issue. In most cases, lower back pain can be treated with painkillers and rest, but for severe cases of injury and chronic back pain, surgery might be needed.
Lower Back Pain Physiotherapy Treatment London
Affecting around 1 in 3 adults in the UK each year, Lower Back Pain (LBP) is a very common disorder, with an estimated 2.5 million people seeking help from their GP about their condition[1].
What could be the origins of lower back pain ?
However, pain is only a symptom and a similar pain can have a myriad of different origins. For example, a pain located in your lower back may originate from:
- Muscle spams
- Facet irritation
- A dysfunction of an digestive organ, in which case massaging your back won’t make any difference
- Many more mechanical or non-mechanical issues can create pain in your back, to have more information; you can call or consult our expert physiotherapist and osteopath.
Treating lower back pain by reasoning properly
To cure Lower back pain, we need to understand from which tissue your pain comes from and what the root causes of your condition are. Therefore, for us at London Home Visit Physiotherapy, clinical reasoning (using our brain to understand your problem) is an essential part of our management.
It is composed of
- First, a thorough study of your medical history to develop a differential diagnosis (basically, from your answers to our questions, we build several theories that can explain your problems)
- Second, a specific examination will be performed to test these different theories. These examinations consist of a mixture of active movements (we ask you to move), passive movements (you relax and we move your joints), and other targeted tests.
- Third, In regard of this diagnosis, we will develop a tailored treatment plan.
- This approach allows us not only to be more efficient but also to have a treatment tailored for your specific condition and your specific needs.
