Back Pain

Back pain is one of the most common health issues in the UK, with varying symptoms such as stiffness, sharp twinges and pain that shoots down the legs. 

For some, back pain goes away on its own. But for others, it can develop into a long-term challenge that’s difficult to manage. And this can have a serious impact on your sleep, mood, and ability to get on with life.

Conventional Treatments Options

Treatment for back pain can vary depending on the cause and severity, with NHS guidance often combining self-management and clinical support. This can include: 

  • Pain relief medication (over-the-counter or prescription)
  • Physiotherapy and tailored exercise programmes 
  • Heat or cold therapy 
  • Lifestyle adjustments such as posture correction, weight management and ergonomic improvements
  • Surgery may be considered in rare cases

But for some, this simply isn’t enough.
