Non-Specific Low Back Pain

Non-specific low back pain refers to pain in the lower back region without a specific identifiable cause or underlying medical condition. It's a common type of back pain that is not associated with any specific disease or injury. Examples of conditions that can cause non-specific low back pain include:
- Vertebral fractures
- Spinal cancer (primary or metastatic)
- Spinal infections
- Inflammatory conditions.

Acute Low Back Pain

Acute low back pain refers to sudden and short-term pain in the lower back. It typically lasts for a few days to a few weeks and is often caused by a specific injury or trauma. Examples of conditions that can cause acute low back pain include:

Muscle strain: Repeated heavy lifting, sudden awkward movements, or overuse of the back muscles can lead to strain or sprain.

Herniated disc: This occurs when the gel-like discs between the bones of the spine rupture or bulge outwards, putting pressure on the surrounding nerves. This can result in intense pain and discomfort.

Spinal stenosis: This is a medical condition characterised by the narrowing of the spinal canal, which can lead to compression of the spinal cord and nerves, causing pain and discomfort.

Degenerative disc disease: Over time, the discs in the spine can wear down, leading to pain and discomfort.

Sciatica: This is characterised by the compression or irritation of the sciatic nerve, which extends from the lower back down to the legs. This condition often manifests as intense and shooting pain that originates in the back and radiates down the legs.

Sub-Acute Lower Back Pain

Subacute low back pain refers to a stage of back pain that lasts for a longer duration than acute pain but is not considered chronic. It typically lasts between 6 to 12 weeks. Examples of conditions that can cause subacute lower back pain include:
  • Muscle or ligament strain from repeated heavy lifting or sudden awkward movements
  • Spinal degeneration
  • Spinal injury

Chronic Back Pain

Chronic low back pain refers to persistent or long-lasting pain in the lower back region. It's a condition that lasts for more than 12 weeks. There can be various causes of chronic low back pain, including:

  • Mechanical or structural problems with the spine
  • Inflammatory conditions like arthritis
  • Degenerative joint or spine disease
  • Abnormal curvature of the spine
  • Slipped disk (herniated disk)
  • Spinal stenosis (narrowing of the spinal canal)
  • Muscle or ligament strain
  • Repeated heavy lifting or sudden awkward movement

STEP 2: IN-DEPTH REVIEW

During an in-depth review of the medical findings and symptoms at our physiotherapy clinic, our back pain specialist will thoroughly assess the patient's medical history, symptoms, lifestyle, and health goals. This comprehensive evaluation helps our specialist understand the underlying causes of chronic lower back pain and tailor the back pain therapy accordingly.

By gathering detailed information, our specialist can determine the underlying medical conditions behind the patient's chronic low back pain. This allows our specialist to provide the most effective back pain treatment approach, whether it's addressing musculoskeletal issues, neuropathic pain conditions, or post-surgical conditions.

This personalised approach is crucial to provide targeted pain relief and improve the patient's quality of life. It ensures that our methods for back pain physiotherapy are specifically designed to address the individual's unique needs, increasing the chances of successful pain management and recovery.

STEP 3: ASSESSMENT

STEP 3: ASSESSMENT

During the assessment at Phoenix Rehab, our physical therapist conducts a comprehensive examination, including both subjective and physical evaluations.

This evaluation process is crucial in understanding the severity and possible causes of the patient's condition, particularly in the case of back pain therapy. The therapist utilises evidence-based practice, combining medical diagnosis and manual therapy techniques to assess and treat the musculoskeletal system.

Our personalised and evidenced-based approach helps tailor the back pain therapy specifically to address the underlying causes of chronic lower back pain, ensuring targeted pain relief and improved quality of life for the patient.

STEP 4: TREATMENT

STEP 4: TREATMENT

At Phoenix Rehab, the treatment sessions for back pain therapy are patient-focused and aim to address the underlying causes of chronic low back pain.

Our team members conduct comprehensive evaluations during the initial consultation to understand the severity and root cause of the condition. These personalised sessions are one-on-one, ensuring focused attention and don't employ the aid of therapy assistants.

Therapy sessions in our clinic may include a combination of interventions such as manual therapy, progressive strengthening exercises, nerve mobilisation procedures like transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation, and progressive walking. The goal is to provide an evidence-based treatment plan that effectively targets the source of the pain, promotes healing, and improves the patient's quality of life.
