At The Brisbane Spine Clinic, our we use a range of physiotherapy treatment options to help patients manage lower back pain. Our physiotherapists understand that lower back pain can be caused by a number of factors and present in a range of ways.
We aim to get to the true cause of your pain to make sure that you receive the treatment best suited to your condition. This can include strength and mobility exercises to regain functional movement. We may also prescribe exercises to prevent further injuries.
Neck pain is most often caused by joint, muscle or soft tissue strains or sprains. This type of pain is usually brought on by sudden force applied to the body, such as during sports or in a car accident. However, they can also occur when your neck is in an awkward position for a prolonged period, such as having poor posture or sleeping in the wrong position.
Our physiotherapists use a number of methods to identify the true cause of your neck pain, rather than just managing the symptoms, and to strengthen the area to prevent reoccurrence.
When athletes need to perform at a consistently high level, it can place a huge demand and stress on their body. This stress on the muscles, bones and joints can result in injuries. If you are suffering from an injury caused by sports, our physio in North Lakes may be able to help.
Our physiotherapists are experienced in treating injuries caused by all manner of sports, from elite athletes to gym-goers and bodybuilders. We aim to not just identify the underlying causes of your sporting injury and manage the symptoms, but also offer advice and exercises to prevent recurring or further injuries.
If you have pain spreading from your hip and buttock down to your thigh, lower leg and possibly even your foot, there is a good chance you have sciatica. Sciatica is when the sciatic nerve becomes irritated or pinched.
At The Brisbane Spine Clinic in North Lakes, our physiotherapists have a particular interest in helping patients overcome any symptoms caused by sciatica. They do this through non-surgical treatment options, including functional exercise training, soft tissue trigger point therapy or spinal joint mobilisation.
While not all headaches are the same (there are more than 300 medically categorised types), they are all frustrating and can cause significant pain. When provided by a trained clinician, manual therapy may be able to reduce the symptoms of headaches. Our physios in North Lakes will put together a treatment plan that aims to see you living without the stress and pain of your headaches.
Although we feel the pain in our heads, the symptoms generally originate from the tissue and structures around the upper neck and base of the skull. Often, a balanced, healthy lifestyle and treatments such as manual therapy can help manage the symptoms.
If you are suffering from chronic back pain or sciatica, you may have been referred for spinal surgery. Before undertaking this next step, many patients want to seek out a second opinion. This may be for a number of reasons, including previous negative experiences or doubts.
At The Brisbane Spine Clinic, we offer a private consultation with our physiotherapist to give you an honest second opinion. During this consultation, we will be focusing on understanding you and your condition to ensure that you receive a correct diagnosis, and there is no obligation to continue seeing us for treatment. If you are looking for a second opinion in North Lakes, our physiotherapists can provide you with an honest assessment.
