Physiotherapists are trained in assessment, diagnosis and treatment of back pain and treatment doesn’t involve you attending forever! Our physiotherapists regularly attend professional development courses to upskill in treating back pain, including the Manual Concepts ‘Spinal Manual Therapy certificate’. Manual Concepts are well-known and respected in the physiotherapy field, due to the volume of research they publish and their role in changing the field of physiotherapy.
In assessment and treatment of back pain, we adopt a problem-solving approach. Once we’ve identified the key areas of dysfunction, we use modalities like joint mobilisations, massage, needling, tape and more to help with pain, while layering specific rehab and strength work on top, to help prevent future flare-ups. At Wellness Embodied, we also offer physiotherapist-led pilates, and other rehabilitative exercises, to help you maintain optimum physical condition. We provide a range of Cairns back pain treatments.
Our team are passionate about creating pain-free bodies, capable of performing at their optimum. We are highly qualified and experienced at helping ease and heal patients’ back pain. This starts with correctly diagnosing the cause of the pain and then preparing and delivering an integrated care and treatment program, which creates pathways of healing and rehabilitation. At Wellness Embodied, we don’t believe in endless appointments with no results, we do believe in helping our patients.
