FAQ
Common questions
Should I rest or keep moving?
Gentle movement usually helps more than bed rest. Your physiotherapist will show you which movements are safe.
Do I need an X-ray or MRI?
Most lower back pain does not need a scan. We refer you to a doctor if your symptoms suggest you need one.
How many sessions will I need?
Many people feel better within a few sessions. Long-standing pain may need a longer plan, which we explain after your assessment.
