Reclaim Your Active Life
Back Pain Relief at AMR Physical Therapy
We understand how back pain and sciatica can disrupt your daily activities and limit your enjoyment of life. Our team of dedicated and experienced physical therapists in Anaheim, CA specializes in helping people manage, regain control, and move with confidence again.
Understanding Back Pain
Back pain can stem from various sources, such as muscle strain, ligament tears, or disc herniations.
- Muscular Strain: Did you go a little too hard at the gym? Overexertion and improper lifting techniques can strain your back muscles, resulting in pain and limited mobility. Targeted exercises that strengthen and stabilize your lower back can alleviate discomfort and prevent similar injuries in the future.
- Bulging and Herniated Discs: When one of the cushiony discs between your vertebrae ruptures or bulges, it can lead to pain and discomfort in your lower back. While herniated discs usually heal on their own, we’ll offer pain management strategies and strengthening exercises to relieve discomfort and restore function.
- Degenerative Disc Disease: As you age, your spinal discs can start to wear down, leading to a loss of their shock-absorbing properties–and an increase in lower back pain. We’ll work with you to slow the progression of disc degeneration by improving strength and mobility in your back.
- Poor Posture: When you slouch or spend too much time sitting, it leads to stress on the spine and surrounding muscles, leading to pain and discomfort. We’ll show you proven techniques for correcting postural impairments and strengthening your core so your spine gets the support it needs.
Symptoms of Back Pain
Back pain can manifest in various ways:
- Aching or dull pain in the lower back
- Sharp or stabbing pain
- Muscle stiffness
- Difficulty bending, twisting, or standing for long periods
