Low Back Pain

Back pain is a leading cause of missed work and physiotherapy visits, affecting people of all ages and fitness levels. It can stem from mechanical issues involving muscles, vertebrae, ligaments, nerves, or spinal discs, or be related to inflammation, which may be managed with medications or exercise. Common causes include heavy lifting, poor posture, or repetitive stress, leading to conditions such as muscle strains, disc injuries, and nerve irritation. Symptoms can range from dull aches to sharp or shooting pain, and may also include numbness, weakness, or stiffness, particularly in the lower back or legs.
