Our Comprehensive Approach to Chronic Lower Back Pain
Many chronic lower back pain cases are treated with a focus on short-term pain relief, often neglecting the underlying issues. At Achieve Health, we believe it is essential to perform a thorough and holistic assessment to identify the root causes of your pain. Common contributing factors we frequently address include:
- Biomechanical anomalies (these can be from the position of the feet through to postural anomalies that have not been previously addressed)
- Compensated movement patterns
- Pelvic-lumbar control dysfunction
- Degenerative conditions
- Soft tissue compensations due to trauma or inflammation
By identifying these factors early in the treatment process, we aim to develop a comprehensive and tailored treatment plan. Every incidence of aggravation can set off a new inflammatory cycle, creating compensatory movement patterns, which, if untreated, can perpetuate pain. Our goal is to address the primary cause while also working to resolve these secondary and tertiary issues.
Hands-On Treatment for Effective Symptom Relief
Our treatment methods are hands-on and highly individualised. Clients receive a dedicated physiotherapist for the duration of their care, ensuring continuity and rapport. We employ techniques such as:
- Soft tissue work to relieve tension and promote healing
- Joint mobilisation and articulation to restore normal joint movement
- Strength and conditioning programs designed specifically for your body’s needs
- Biomechanical and postural assessments to correct underlying movement issues
These treatments are tailored to your functional goals, whether that’s getting back to work, engaging in hobbies, or simply being able to walk without pain. For us, treating chronic lower back pain is about treating the whole person, not just the symptoms.
Proven Symptom Improvement
While chronic lower back pain can be stubborn, our approach has yielded consistent results. The majority of our clients experience 40-50% improvement in their symptoms within the first three to four sessions of treatment. This improvement is often seen as a reduction in pain levels, improved mobility, and the ability to engage in daily activities with greater ease.
Our strategies are continually evolving, driven by clinical feedback, emerging research, and insights from complex cases. This ensures we are using the most up-to-date and effective methods to manage conditions like chronic lower back pain.
A Personalised Treatment Approach
We understand that no two clients are the same, which is why we take the time to learn about your lifestyle, stresses, and specific goals. Whether your aim is to return to the gym, or simply to walk your dog without pain, our treatment plans are designed to fit into your daily routine and help you achieve functional, meaningful progress.
