  • Back pain affects people of all ages and lifestyles. Lower back pain is the most common type of back pain. The back is made up of vertebrae, discs, muscles, ligaments and nerves which when injured or inflamed, leads to back pain. Fortunately, manual therapies such as physical therapy and rehabilitation can relieve back pain and help return a patient to living an active, pain-free life.

  • For some patients, acute back pain may go away on it's own after a couple of days. For others with more persistent back pain or chronic back pain conditions, back pain treatment is available. Often patients experiencing back pain resort to seeing a spine surgeon or spine specialist, but in many cases our doctors of physical therapy can address your spine conditions and back pain conditions manually.

    At Sarrica Physical Therapy, our team of back pain doctors and physical therapists are experienced in treating back pain using physical therapy, various manual therapies and strengthening. Heat therapy, cold therapy and muscle relaxation are modalities often seen in the treatment of back pain.
