Lower back pain — medically known as lumbago — manifests as sudden, severe pain in the lower back, often after an awkward movement. The muscles contract protectively, severely restricting movement. The cause is usually harmless but painful. With targeted manual therapy and heat, we relieve the acute symptoms and get you moving again quickly.
Causes
- Awkward movement or sudden twisting
- Tension in the back muscles
- Blockage of small spinal joints
- Exposure to cold or draughts
Symptoms
- Sudden, stabbing pain in the lower back
- Severe movement restriction (rigid posture)
- Pain worsening when bending or twisting
- Possible radiation into buttocks or thigh
