Low back pain: home physiotherapy

Pain in the lower back from various causes.

How physiotherapy helps

Low back pain is one of the most common conditions, affecting 80% of adults at some point in their lives. It may be caused by poor posture, sedentary lifestyle, muscle weakness, injury, or disc degeneration. Physiotherapy is one of the core, evidence-based approaches for low back pain, and it can be delivered safely at home. A specialized physiotherapist will assess your condition, identify the root causes of pain, and design a personalized program including manual therapy techniques, targeted core strengthening exercises, stretching, and posture education. The goal is not just pain relief, but also prevention of recurrence by strengthening the muscles that support the spine. Many patients notice improvement within the first few weeks; the timeline depends on the cause and severity.
