Back Pain

Most of us will probably suffer from lower back pain at some stage during our lives. Lower back pain can be described as either acute when lasting for up to 3 months, or chronic when the pain persists beyond that time.

Common Symptoms That Require Osteopathy

A common symptom that indicates the need for treatment is severe, aching or stabbing back pain that you may experience after lifting or carrying a heavy object, performing a sudden movement and during or after a sporting activity.

You may also experience a combination of these symptoms:

Constant aching or dull pain
Intense muscles spasm that can be debilitating
Difficulty getting out of bed, moving, and/or walking
Pain when bending forward
Pain from sitting to standing
Some stiffness in the spine
Tenderness when touching some areas of the back
