Back Pain / Sciatica

Osteopathy For Back Pain

Back pain is one of the most common reasons people seek osteopathic care. Because every case is different, your practitioner will look at the whole picture: your daily habits, physical history, movement patterns, and any contributing lifestyle factors. This helps us identify what is driving your pain and create a treatment plan that addresses both the structural issues and the behaviours that keep the problem going.

Back pain can appear suddenly or build up over time. It may be caused by something simple, like lifting an awkward load, or it may be linked to a more complex condition such as a disc injury. Whatever the cause, back pain is a frequent presentation at Head Above Healthcare.

Osteopathy can assist with a wide range of back pain conditions, including:

Causes of Back Pain

Straining muscles from coughing or sneezing
Sitting or standing for long periods of time
Poor posture
Wearing high heels
Pregnancy

Treatment of Back Pain

Treatment depends on what is actually causing your pain. For some people, simple measures like heat, ice, or short-term medication may help. For many others, hands-on treatment from an osteopath provides the most effective path to improvement. We focus on restoring movement, easing tension, improving joint mechanics, and guiding you with practical steps to prevent the issue returning.
