How Physical Therapy Helps Low Back Pain Sufferers

Did you know that low back pain is the top reason why patients seek physical therapy? About 25% of people in the United States report having low back pain within the past three months. In most instances, low back pain is mild and goes away on its own. However, back pain can return or stay constant for some people, leading to decreased quality of life or even lead to significant disability.

How Physical Therapy Helps Low Back Pain Sufferers

The Importance Of Professional Treatment For Lower Back Pain

If you suffer from persistent low back pain, do not wait to seek care. Research has shown that the best treatment for acute low back pain is the delivery of timely care. The quicker the patient receives medical support, the greater the patient’s recovery. It also lowers the risk that acute low back pain will become chronic low back pain. Our physical therapist at Functional Performance Center can help you recover and restore mobility and decrease low back pain—in many cases, without costly surgery or the side effects of medications.

Advice If You Are Currently Suffering From Lower Back Pain

Stay active and do as much of your daily routine as possible; bed rest is no longer recommended and can slow down your recovery. If your pain persists for more than a few days or gets worse, schedule an appointment to see your physical therapist.

Initial Low Back Pain Evaluation

Not all low back pain is identical, so your treatment should be personalized for your specific symptoms and condition. Once the initial examination is complete, your physical therapist will assess the results, identify the factors contributing to your specific back problem, and design an individualized treatment plan for your particular back problem.

When the following symptoms accompany your low back pain you should go to your local emergency room immediately, as this may be a sign of a more severe condition.
