Yes—lower back pain is one of the most common conditions we treat. Whether it’s acute (sudden onset) or chronic (persistent), we use targeted manual therapy and rehabilitation techniques to restore movement and reduce pain.

We treat all kinds of back pain—whether it’s from poor posture, disc problems, muscle strain, sciatica, or long-term wear and tear. We tailor treatment based on the root cause, not just the symptoms.

In most cases, yes. Even longstanding back issues often respond well to a structured plan of osteopathic treatment, mobility work, and ergonomic advice. We aim to reduce flare-ups and improve quality of life.

Osteopathy takes a broader, whole-body view. While chiropractors tend to focus on spinal adjustments, we also address muscle tension, joint mechanics, posture, and lifestyle habits—all of which affect the back.

We’ll take a detailed history, assess your posture, spine, and movement, then carry out gentle hands-on treatment. We’ll explain what’s causing your back pain and how we plan to fix it.

The hands-on assessment can include, Osteopathic and Orthopaedic testing and if required further clinical screening, i.e. Neurological, cardiovascular testing, to find the root cause of pain and to ensure your safety during treatment, or whether a  medical referral will be required.

Not usually. In most cases, a physical assessment is sufficient. If we suspect something requiring further investigation, we’ll refer you appropriately.

Your Diagnosis, examination findings along with treatment options, including benefits, possible side or adverse effects will all be explained to you, so you can make an informed choice to get your recovery back to full health.

This depends on the cause. Some people feel better after one or two sessions. Others benefit from a short course or ongoing maintenance treatments to manage chronic tension, disc issues, or occupational strain.

Yes. Sciatica (pain radiating from the lower back down the leg) is often caused by nerve compression or irritation. We identify the cause and use safe, manual techniques to relieve pressure and reduce inflammation.

Yes. We’ll give you simple, tailored stretches and strengthening exercises to support your treatment and prevent recurrence.

Absolutely. Sitting for long hours, poor workstation setup, or weak core muscles can all contribute to back pain. We’ll advise on postural corrections and daily habits to support a healthier spine.
