Physical Therapy for Backin Connecticut, Maryland, Massachusetts, & New York
Back pain is one of the most common musculoskeletal issues, affecting millions of people each year. Whether it’s caused by muscle strain, poor posture, or an underlying condition, back pain can limit mobility and interfere with daily activities like bending, lifting, or even sitting for long periods. Understanding the root cause of your discomfort is the first step toward pain management and potential long-term recovery.
Understanding Your Back Pain:
- Muscle Strains & Overuse Injuries: Repetitive movements, heavy lifting, or prolonged sitting can lead to muscle tightness, spasms, or strain. These issues can cause sharp or aching pain that worsens with movement.
- Postural Imbalances: Poor posture—such as slouching at a desk or standing with improper alignment—places excessive stress on the spine, leading to chronic discomfort and stiffness.
- Degenerative Conditions: Arthritis, herniated discs, or spinal stenosis can contribute to persistent or recurring back pain, often affecting mobility and comfort during daily tasks.
