Back Pain
Treating Back Pain – Physiotherapy and Targeted Assistance
Back pain is one of the most common complaints, which can occur both acutely and chronically. It can affect the lower back, the spine, or even the upper back, and can be caused by a variety of issues such as muscle tension, herniated discs, postural problems, or overstrain. Our physiotherapy for back pain offers comprehensive treatment tailored to your individual needs to achieve long-term relief.
Diagnoses and Common Types of Back Pain
Diagnoses and Common Types of Back Pain
We specialize in the treatment of back pain and offer targeted solutions for the following conditions, which we frequently treat in our practice:
Acute Back Pain
Acute back pain, often referred to as lumbago, typically arises from sudden lifting, twisting, or overstrain. This pain usually occurs in the lower and upper back and can lead to significant mobility restrictions. Our physiotherapy for acute back pain helps alleviate pain and restore mobility quickly.
Chronic Back Pain
Chronic back pain persists over a long period and may be caused by recurring strain, overload, postural problems, or degenerative changes. Treatment includes targeted physiotherapy aimed at improving posture, strengthening muscles, promoting circulation, and relieving pain.
Herniated Disc
A herniated disc commonly occurs in the lumbar spine and cervical spine, causing severe pain that can radiate into the legs or arms. These pains are caused by the disc pressing on nerve structures. Our physiotherapy for herniated discs focuses on alleviating pain, reducing pressure on the discs and inflammation, and eventually restoring mobility, function, and load-bearing capacity.
Sciatic Pain (Sciatica)
Sciatic pain occurs due to pressure on the sciatic nerve, leading to pain radiating from the lower back to the legs. Common causes include herniated discs, muscle tension, or other compression syndromes. Treatment consists of targeted physiotherapy exercises that relieve pressure and strain on the sciatic nerve and improve mobility and function.
Muscle Tension in the Back
Muscle tension is often caused by stress, poor posture, or overstrain, leading to pain in the upper and lower back. This tension affects mobility and quality of life. Through targeted physiotherapy, we can identify the causes, restore muscle balance, and alleviate pain.
Back Pain from Postural Problems and Overstrain
Many back pain issues arise from postural problems, which often occur with sedentary activities. A weak core and one-sided posture lead to chronic strain on the spine. Our physiotherapy focuses on correcting these postural issues and strengthening muscles through specific exercises to prevent long-term back pain.
Surgery after Back Pain
After back surgery, such as a disc operation, targeted rehabilitation programs are necessary to restore the mobility and stability of the back. Our physiotherapy after back surgery helps you regain normal physical capacity step by step.
Causes of Back Pain – A Holistic Approach
Back and spine pain often have a variety of causes that go beyond physical factors. In addition to muscular imbalances, overstrain, herniated discs, or postural issues, social and psychological factors also play a role. At our practice, we focus on a holistic analysis that includes these components. This allows us to better understand the causes of your back pain and develop comprehensive therapy.
Individual Treatment Strategies for Relieving Back Pain
Based on our analysis, we develop an individual treatment plan tailored to your specific back complaints. This plan includes a combination of physiotherapy exercises, manual therapy, and targeted mobility and strengthening exercises. Our goal is not only to relieve symptoms but also to address the causes of back pain to prevent or reduce future discomfort.
Treating and Preventing Back Pain: Prevention at the Forefront
Early diagnosis and targeted treatment of back pain are essential to avoid long-term restrictions. In addition to physiotherapy, we offer prevention strategies to avoid recurring back pain:
- Movement analyses to identify and correct imbalances and postural issues.
- Strengthening the stabilizing back muscles through specific strengthening exercises.
- Gradual increase in physical load to avoid overstraining the back.
Rehabilitation and Return to Normal Activity After Back Pain
After a back injury or surgery, it is important to create an individual training plan that enables a safe return to normal activity. Our team monitors your progress and continuously adjusts the exercises to minimize the risk of relapse.
An example of a step-by-step training progression:
- Focus on mobility, stability, and technique.
- Strength training to strengthen the back muscles.
- Progressive increase in training volume and intensity.
- Regular check-ups and adjustments to reduce the risk of recurring back pain.

Back pain can be both physically and mentally taxing. With an individually tailored combination of regeneration measures, stress management, and physiotherapy techniques, we support you in becoming pain-free and mobile again. This way, you can enjoy the positive effects of a healthy back in the long term.
