Exercise: We use targeted exercises to build strength, flexibility, and endurance in the lower back, core, and hips. These customized programs address imbalances, improve posture, and enhance stability for long-term spine health.

Manual Therapy: Hands-on techniques—including soft-tissue massage, joint mobilization, and gentle spinal work—reduce muscle tension, improve alignment, and restore natural movement.

Modalities: To support healing and ease pain, we may incorporate heat or ice, ultrasound, or electrical stimulation. These tools help manage inflammation, calm muscle spasms, and promote circulation.

Patient Education: Education is central to your plan. We teach proper posture, safe body mechanics, and ergonomic strategies that protect your spine and reduce the likelihood of future back pain.

At your first visit, your physical therapist will perform a comprehensive evaluation to assess pain levels, mobility, posture, and functional limitations. This may include reviewing your medical history and using specific movement tests to pinpoint the source of your lower back pain.

Using the results of your evaluation, we’ll build a personalized plan outlining the exercises, manual techniques, and supportive therapies most appropriate for you. Your therapist will monitor your progress and adjust the plan to ensure optimal results. Sessions typically blend hands-on care, guided exercises, and education to help you gain strength, reduce pain, and move comfortably—whether you’re here in Columbia Falls, MT or nearby.
