Back Pain Physical Therapy
Physical therapy is a widely used treatment for back pain but is often not enough to make the underlying changes necessary to solve the problem. There are many different forms of physical therapy which a chiropractic office refers to as “physiotherapy” in Texas. Acutely, the doctor or therapist may focus on decreasing pain with passive physical therapy. The exercise ball – also called a Swiss ball or physio ball – is a conservative treatment option for back pain sufferers and is designed to help prevent further episodes of low back pain as part of a rehabilitation program.
Treatment at Southwest Spine Center combines the best of all available therapy including spinal decompression, traditional and modern chiropractic adjustments, low level or cold light laser therapy by Erchonia, massage therapy and trigger point work, acupuncture and physiotherapy such as electric muscle stimulation (EMS), intersegmental traction (IST), heat, ice, ultrasound, muscle-release techniques, percussion and more without the use of drugs, injections or surgery.
