Back Pain
Back pain is a common health issue that affects people of any age for different reasons. It can occur when the spine is stressed by injury, poor posture, disease, wear and tear, or poor body mechanisms. Many individuals suffer from back pain as a result of compensation of other parts of the body, such as an old ankle sprain, past knee injuries or stiffness in the hip joint.
Why Central Minds
Whether you have an acute knee injury or a long standing issue, degenerative problems, or simply find that our haven’t experienced any relief with standard conventional treatments, orthotics or anti-inflammatory medications, our physical therapists will work with you to find ad treat the root cause of your knee problem. This will eventually help to reduce the chances of re-injury or returning pain.
Your individualised program may include one or a combination of the following treatments:
• Joint mobilisation (to improve range of motion of the knee)
• Soft tissue release (to reduce pain, swelling and tightness)
• Realignment of the pelvis, hip, ankle and foot joints
• Flexibility training
• Strength and endurance training
Our goal is to look beyond the symptoms, treat the root cause and achieve long lasting results.
