Low Back Pain

Low back pain is one of the most common musculoskeletal presentations. It can stem from postural strain, muscular imbalance, lumbar facet joint irritation, or disc loading. Physiotherapy focuses on understanding pain behaviour, restoring lumbar mobility, strengthening core stabilizers, and empowering patients with sustainable self-management.
