FAQs

Frequently Asked Questions

How long does it take to recover from back pain with physiotherapy?

Recovery time depends on the severity of the injury and adherence to the treatment plan. Many patients experience significant improvement within 4-6 weeks, but chronic conditions may require ongoing care. Our physiotherapists in Chelmsford will develop a personalised timeline based on your specific needs.

Can I continue working with back pain?

Continuing to work is often possible with modifications to avoid activities that aggravate your pain. Our team can provide ergonomic advice to help you stay comfortable and minimise strain. Book a consultation to receive tailored guidance for managing your pain at work.

What should I avoid if I have back pain?

Avoid heavy lifting, prolonged sitting, and repetitive bending or twisting. Maintaining good posture and taking breaks from sitting can help. Our physiotherapists will give you specific activity guidelines to reduce strain on your back.

Is exercise safe with back pain?

Exercise can be beneficial for managing back pain, as long as it is done correctly. Low-impact activities, such as walking or gentle stretching, are often safe. Our team will design a safe exercise programme tailored to your needs, helping you strengthen the back without risking further injury.

What if my back pain comes back?

Recurrence of back pain is common, especially if the underlying causes are not fully addressed. We focus on teaching self-management strategies and proper ergonomics to prevent future episodes. Book a follow-up session if your back pain returns for an updated treatment approach.
