Back Pain

 

The team at Hills Physio offers customised treatments to relieve back pain and provide long term relief. Lower back pain is such a common complaint that it’s often overlooked or ignored by many people. The right treatment however, along with tailored exercises can bring enormous relief, restoring pain-free movement and often helping to prevent recurring episodes.

Back pain is one of the most frequent causes of sick leave, but since most of this pain is cause by musculoskeletal problems, it can be treated fairly quickly. We treat a variety of different problems under the umbrella of ‘back pain, including the following:

  • Pregnancy related pelvic girdle pain

  • Chronic back pain

  • Bulging discs

  • Nerve pain

  • Sciatica

Customised treatments tailored to your exact needs

At Hills Physio, we know that one-size doesn’t suit everyone, which is why we customise your treatment session to suit your needs. All our treatment sessions are hands-on, using manual therapy and manipulation to ease your back pain and prevent recurrence.

Shaun Williams (our senior physiotherapist & Director) is our go-to back pain specialist and is well-known to local GPs and specialists in the area. They refer their patients to Shaun when everything else has been tried and nothing has worked to ease their back pain. He’s that good!

One of the factors that makes Shaun’s treatments so effective is that he looks at the whole picture, not only focussing on your back pain, but on preventing it happening again. This includes how you spend your day, how long you sit, stand and walk, where you sit, how your workspace is organised and what you do for a living, as well as other lifestyle demands, such as picking up small children, cleaning leaves out of gutters, and so on. All of these factors will have varying impacts on your back pain and the treatments and exercises required to provide long term relief.
