Low back pain
Prevalence · 1 in 4 adults annually
From overnight lockups to long-running disc-related sciatica — the most-treated complaint at the clinic.
Typical course of care
6 – 10 sessions over 4 – 6 weeks
Most patients see meaningful change inside the first three sessions. We re-test two markers every visit and adjust the plan in writing.
Common at the clinic
Roughly one in eight assessments at Holistic Physio is for a case like low back pain.
Signs we look for
- Stiffness on getting out of bed
- Pain radiating into the buttock or leg
- Difficulty sitting longer than 30 minutes
- Recurring episodes after lifting or driving
How we treat it
Mechanical diagnosis (McKenzie), targeted manual therapy where indicated, and a graded loading programme. Pain education is built into every session.
We measure baseline range, strength, and one functional task at the first visit, then re-test two of the three markers every session after.
