A dull ache after sitting or lifting, morning stiffness that eases once you get moving.

Lower back pain is one of the most common reasons people come to see us — whether it started suddenly after lifting something awkwardly, or crept in gradually from long hours sitting at a desk. We assess your movement patterns and load history to find what's actually driving it, then build a plan around hands-on treatment and progressive strengthening.

Treated as part of our physiotherapy service.

Common causes

  • Sustained poor posture or prolonged sitting
  • Lifting with poor technique or under fatigue
  • Weak core and hip stabilisers
  • A previous injury that never fully rehabilitated

Our approach

  • Thorough movement and load assessment
  • Hands-on manual therapy to ease acute pain
  • Progressive core and hip strengthening
  • Ergonomic and lifting technique advice
