  2. Back pain is common for a lot of people- it can be minor and manageable for some and debilitating for others. There are several different reasons why people experience back pain and while we often associate back pain with old age, it can affect individuals of all ages. Back pain can be related to work, sleep, stress, fitness, genetics, and many other factors that occur in our day-to-day lives, making it difficult to diagnose. Certain medical conditions, sprains, and inflammatory diseases are also leading causes of back pain. “Chronic” back pain is classified as pain that is present for twelve weeks or more. Chronic pain, particularly in the back, appears quickly or gradually and can worsen over time if it’s not treated. Some chronic back pain can go away on its own with at-home treatments and over-the-counter pain management, however, those experiencing aggressive back pain should seek treatment from a doctor. While chronic back pain can be challenging to treat, there are many non-surgical options for people who are struggling, including physiotherapy. Highland Physio & Rehab is a professional physiotherapy clinic in Kitchener that offers many different services and treatments for patients who are suffering from chronic back pain.

  3. MASSAGE Therapeutic back massages are a popular treatment for chronic back pain, both in and out of physiotherapy clinics. Massage is more readily available than other more advanced treatments, and while visiting a spa may be helpful, it’s best to receive a massage from a licensed physician, recommended by your physiotherapist who is aware of your injuries. Massage can reduce pain and offer immediate relief to patients suffering from chronic back pain flare and increase circulation and blood flow through the whole body. Depending on the severity of your chronic back pain, your physiotherapist will advise you on how often you should be getting massaged as well as the duration and type.

  4. STRETCHING Chronic lower back pain may be treated through simple and effective stretches. Your physiotherapist will provide you with and demonstrate several different stretches you can do while you’re at home or the gym. Stretching for chronic lower back pain involves movement and use of the whole body- for example, you may be advised to stretch out your legs or abdomen to provide relief to your lower back. At our physiotherapy clinic in Kitchener, you will be able to consult with a physiotherapist about the best stretching regime for you.

  5. ACUPUNCTURE If you are seeking physiotherapy in Kitchener, don’t leave out acupuncture as an option; it can be a very helpful tool in the treatment of chronic back pain. Acupuncture involves a physiotherapist using very thin needles at different points of the body to relieve pain and tension. Dating back to ancient China, acupuncture has been used to treat several different issues in the body including headaches, sports injuries, digestive issues, and more. Acupuncture is a chronic back pain treatment with little to no side effects or recovery time offered by Highland Physio & Rehab.

  6. RANGE OF MOTION & STRENGTH TRAINING EXERCISES When you are experiencing chronic lower back pain, exercising and moving your body might feel like the last thing you want to do.
