Struggling with back pain hinders you from accomplishing your tasks and leaves you feeling exhausted every day. World Health Organization reported this common condition affects more than 600 million people worldwide. It’s no wonder that our leading Doctor of Chiropractor, Michael Bryant, has seen back pain impact the lives of many Singaporeans. As a result, he designed Functional Correction Method that combines physiotherapy and chiropractic care principles to alleviate back pain and restore physical function. Here’s everything you need to understand the crucial role of physiotherapy in treating back pain and why our holistic back pain solution is perfect for you.
Who Should Consider Physiotherapy For Back Pain
Physiotherapy focuses on restoring and maintaining physical function through targeted techniques and exercises. It is highly recommended for individuals experiencing different conditions that cause back pain, including
- Herniated discs
- Muscle strains & sprains
- Back injuries
- Poor posture
- Poor sleeping position
Physiotherapists assess posture, muscle imbalances, movement patterns, and lifestyle habits to develop personalised treatment plans. This approach addresses the specific needs of each individual while also resolving the root causes of back pain.
How Physiotherapy Works For Back Pain
With a holistic and personalised focus, physiotherapy for back pain treatment in Singapore uses various techniques to promote healing, strengthen the affected areas, and improve overall function.
Manual therapy
reduces pain, improves joint mobility, and releases muscle tension. This includes a post-anterior technique that applies controlled movement to a vertebral segment from back to front to help patients with low back pain. Another example is soft tissue mobilisation which utilises rhythmic stretching and deep pressure on the spine muscles to manage back pain.
Exercise prescriptions
are programs carefully tailored to each individual’s needs and goals. We develop these exercises according to your health condition and fitness levels. This improves the back and core muscles’ strength, flexibility, and stability at home.
Patient education
empowers you with knowledge and skills to take an active role in your recovery and long-term well-being. By teaching you proper body mechanics, postural awareness, and self-management methods, we hope to support your journey to wellness.
