Lower back pain can interfere with everyday life, from simple tasks like bending and walking to more demanding movements. Physical therapy is one of the most effective, evidence-based options for managing and overcoming back pain. By addressing root causes—such as muscle imbalances, postural issues, and movement dysfunction—PT helps patients achieve lasting pain relief alongside improved strength and flexibility. Compared to medication or surgery, physical therapy provides a safe, conservative, and proactive path forward, empowering you to take an active role in recovery.

At OrthoRehab Physical Therapy, we’re committed to patient-centered care with a focus on lasting outcomes.

Exercise: Targeted routines strengthen the lower back, core, and hips while improving flexibility and endurance. These customized programs correct imbalances, enhance posture, and boost stability for long-term spinal health.

Manual Therapy: Hands-on techniques—including soft tissue massage, joint mobilization, and gentle spinal manipulation—help relieve muscle tension, support healthy alignment, and restore natural movement.

Modalities: To aid healing and minimize pain, we may use heat or ice, ultrasound, or electrical stimulation. These therapies help manage inflammation, reduce spasms, and improve circulation.

Patient Education: Learning is a vital part of care. We teach proper posture, safe body mechanics, and ergonomic strategies to safeguard your spine and help prevent future episodes of back pain.

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

Following the evaluation, we’ll create a personalized treatment plan outlining exercises, manual techniques, and supportive therapies best suited to your condition. Your therapist will continually monitor progress and adjust the plan to ensure the best results. Sessions typically combine hands-on care, guided exercise, and education to help you build strength, reduce pain, and regain comfortable movement.
