Low Back Pain & Sciatica
Our Portland Physical Therapists Help Low Back Pain & Sciatica
We can help you with your low back pain or sciatica. Whether it’s providing hands-on techniques to improve mobility and reduce pain or empowering you with exercise programs to build strength, our team can be your solution to getting back to pain-free movement.
Here are just a few of the common injuries we diagnose and treat in our clinics.
- Sciatica: Nerve pain that runs down the back of your leg can be improved with physical therapy. Hands-on techniques to improve spinal and muscle mobility can reduce pain in the short term, and stretching and strengthening exercise programs can help reduce the risk of injury reoccurring.
- Lumbar Instability: Low back pain can result from weakness in the muscles that stabilize the low back region. Lumbopelvic strengthening and stabilization exercises can get you lifting, carrying and moving pain-free!
- Non-Specific Low Back Pain: Oftentimes it is impossible to exactly diagnose what structure is triggering your low back pain. Physical Therapy is the first line treatment of choice in these situations. Hands on techniques to decrease muscle spasm and tightness and low back mobility/strengthening exercises are effective at resolving back pain in these cases.
If you’re not moving as well as you’d like, we are here to help you in getting back to moving at your best!
Individualized Rehabilitation Plans for You
We take the time to thoroughly understand your goals and assess your entire body to develop a customized rehabilitation plan.
