Back and neck pain are among the most common reasons people seek physiotherapy, and with the right approach, recovery is highly achievable. Whether your symptoms have appeared suddenly or have been building over time, we will carry out a detailed assessment to identify what’s causing the problem and what is keeping it going.
Your treatment plan will be tailored to you and may include manual therapy, targeted exercises, postural and movement retraining, advice on managing flare-ups, and options such as acupuncture or dry needling to help relieve muscle tension. Our aim is to help you feel reassured, supported and equipped with a clear plan to restore confidence in your daily activities, work and sleep.
There are many possible contributors including muscle strain, joint stiffness, posture, stress, previous injury and changes in activity levels. Your physiotherapist will help identify the key factors in your case.
Many acute issues improve within a few weeks with the right treatment. Longer-standing symptoms may take more time, but progress is expected throughout your rehabilitation — your physiotherapist will guide you on realistic timeframes.
By improving joint and muscle function, building strength and mobility, and addressing contributing habits or movement patterns, physiotherapy supports both short-term relief and long-term improvement.
