Physical Therapy for Low Back Pain

Physical Therapist Services for Low Back Pain

Most Americans will experience back pain. The good news is that most cases of low back pain are not serious and will respond well to conservative treatments such as treatment by a physical therapist.

Physical therapists are movement experts who treat pain through movement and exercise, hands-on care, and patient education.

Physical therapist treatment is a cost effective first choice in an era when all too often back pain is over-treated with narcotics or unhelpful imaging scans that lead to higher costs.
