Back pain can be a very debilitating experience. It’s scary, the idea that you can’t move in any of our activities that you might do in your daily life that require support from your back. Being told you have a bad back or arthritis in your back or degenerative discs, herniated discs, slipped discs, is also not my idea of a good day.

All these things are scary diagnoses that can make people feel like they’re never going to move properly again. I try to take a lot of the fear out of back pain. There really is a lot we can do to help with back pain. In the clinic here, I like to do a combination of exercises and manual therapy to release some of the restricted tissue.

Also a lot of education around back pain and what it really means and what’s safe to do and what’s not safe to do.
