Cervical / Lumbar Spondylosis

Degenerative changes in the spine are common normal age-related adaptations and do not always directly explain pain. Physiotherapy focuses on your symptoms, daily function, and modifiable physical limitations rather than relying purely on radiological scans.

Cervical / Lumbar Spondylosis

Common Presentations

Typical symptoms and patient experiences
  • Pain and persistent stiffness in neck or lower back
  • Reduced spinal range of motion
  • Activity-related discomfort following prolonged postures
  • Reduced muscular strength and spinal endurance

Assessment May Include

Comprehensive baseline clinical evaluation
  • Comprehensive history and symptom behaviour
  • Spinal and regional mobility testing
  • Muscular strength and endurance
  • Functional daily limitation analysis
  • Neurological screening where relevant

Physiotherapy Management May Include

Multi-faceted therapeutic approach adapted to your recovery stage
Tailored exercise rehabilitation
Mobility work for the entire spine
Strength and endurance training for stabilizing muscles
Postural and activity education
Manual therapy when indicated
Rehabilitation Goals

Maintain or improve movement, physical capacity and long-term self-management.

Medical Coordination Protocol

Medical coordination is important when symptoms are severe, rapidly worsening, associated with major trauma, significant neurological change or other concerning features.
