Sciatica & Back Pain Relief

E.G.

While working at McDonalds as a lobby person, my back pain would increase as the day progressed. After therapy, there was no pain the whole day. PRO Therapy was able to zero in on the source of the pain and worked it out through specific exercises

J.J.

Prior to seeking treatment at PRO Therapy I was taking Hydrocodone when my bulging disc caused pain in my legs. I am so happy to say that I had to take ANY medication since starting therapy at PRO Therapy. I have resumed walking and am completely pain free! Thank you all so much!

R.L.

I had been in moderate pain for over a year. I had physical therapy in California with a PT who diagnosed my issue as SI Joint mis-alignment. I completed two rounds of therapy out there with poor results. After just two weeks at PRO Therapy, John made sure that I had great results

K.R.

Thank you PRO Therapy! The pain in my lower back is gone!

C.S.

I had been suffering with low back pain and sciatica for about four years. PRO Therapy has made a vast improvement of the level of activity I can do with little or no pain. The entire staff is friendly, thorough and efficient.

V.W.

I have experienced sciatic pain off and on all of my life- it is great to be pain free!

M.C.

Before therapy, I had pain on the right side of my lower back. The pain not only kept me from working out but also kept me from sleep and my daily house chores. It was just too painful! I thought that it would go away in time, but after two months of misery, I decided to try PRO Therapy. Now, after just two weeks of physical therapy (and daily homework), I am back to my very active life

D.M.

Thanks to PRO Therapy my back is feeling much better! I will be coming back to get my knees worked on!

E.N.

The therapists at PRO Therapy are awesome! I came in with horrible back pain. Leah has made me 100% better- I can’t thank her enough!

D.W.R.

I was a hot mess after my fall. My back pain was so bad I was reminded of childbirth every day, all day. Now, after working with Leah and Kylee, I have NO back pain! Thank you, PRO Therapy!

N.A.

My back pain was so painful that it prevented me from doing housework- I could hardly walk! Now, after just a few treatments at PRO Therapy I am back to completing day to day tasks and even walking for exercise!

C.K.

PRO Therapy did an excellent job increasing my core strength and relieving the pain caused by my sciatica. They know their stuff!

J.P.

PRO Therapy has helped very much with my ability to carry out daily activities. My strength is better and I can sit and stand without pain. Thank you! I am very happy with my results.

P.N.

I began my journey with PRO Therapy at one of John Twomey’s Back Pain and Sciatica Workshops. After becoming a...

Barbara S.

Before I met the PRO Therapy team, I was suffering from chronic back pain and two arthritic knees needing surgery. My daily activities were curtailed. I loved everyone at PRO Therapy, each person is professional, kind, upbeat, helpful, encouraging and fun. I am so happy and STRONGER! I now have less lingering pain and the tools (specific exercises) to continue to support my bones and lessen my pain. I actually look forward to now moving my body.

Richard G.

PRO Therapy is a great group to work with. Before coming to PRO Therapy, post-op back surgery activities were limited and very painful. I now enjoy unlimited activities pain-free. I would strongly endorse PRO Therapy to anyone requiring rehabilitation. Everyone works well together to provide a solid understanding of quick recovery and the return to normal life.

Eddie C.

I have gotten my life back!!! I can do my daily activities without feeling like my back has been hit by a baseball bat. Thank you Stan and Mariah- you are great to work with! I also appreciate all the techs who have helped me on this journey.

Larry L.

Very friendly and knowledgeable staff. They are helping my back pain!

Stop Sciatica Pain & Get Back To Living Your Life!

Do you often wake up in the morning with annoying back pain? Have you felt aches in your back, thighs, and even buttocks region? Can you not do certain things because you’re worried you’ll “throw out your back” or hurt yourself?

The American Physical Therapy Association claims that out of every reported pain in the USA, back pain is the most common. When the study was conducted, one out of every four Americans had dealt with back pain in the three months prior.

Back pain is specific to the upper, middle, or lower part of your back. Sciatica and back pain often get confused with each other. Sciatica, or “lumbar radiculopathy,” is a condition in which pain radiates down the buttock, thighs, and legs. It’s also common to experience a radiating numbness, burning or tingling sensation on certain parts of the leg. This is called radiculopathy, and it’s associated with herniated discs and entrapped nerves.

Don’t rely on prescription medications to give you relief from back and sciatica pain. Listen to your body; it’s trying to alert you to the deeper root of the problem! Physical therapy is an excellent route to go down if you’re looking for long-lasting relief from sciatica and back pain. Deciding to see a physical therapist can also eliminate the need to take harmful painkillers or have an invasive (and expensive!) surgery. Be sure to contact PRO Therapy to learn more about treatment options today.

Do you have sciatica pain or back pain?

Is it Sciatica?

Sciatica pain is extremely uncomfortable, but it is very easy to diagnose! People suffering from sciatica experience pain along their sciatic nerve. Coincidentally, this is the largest nerve in your body, so if you’re feeling pressure on it when you move, it’s best to get it checked out.

Your sciatic nerve starts at your lower back, and then splits at the base of your spine. From there, it goes even further, down your buttocks, your legs, and finally to the bottom of each foot. If this nerve becomes irritated or compressed, you’ll feel burning sensations along your lower back, buttocks, legs, and/or feet.

Or Back Pain?

The term “back pain” is widely used and can be the result of a multitude of different conditions. You might experience back pain because of an injury, auto accident, or poor posture. Your Lake Havasu City, AZ physical therapist will set up a treatment plan for you with exercises and stretches. These will vary depending on where your pain is located, how your back pain came about, as well as your medical history.

Back pain can also be described as “acute,” meaning it lasts for a short while, or “chronic,” meaning it is long-term and probably has been an issue for you for at least three months.

What causes back pain and sciatica to occur?

Normally, back pain develops as a result of an injury. These injuries can be due to repetitive straining motions, like bending over to pick up a small child or animal multiple times a day, or even more serious trauma, such as a car accident. Herniated discs can also bring about extreme pain, as well as radiculopathy symptoms to the legs, thighs, and feet.

Degenerative disc disease is a  common condition that many people develop as they age over time. This results in back pain as well. People struggling with this disease typically report experiencing dull, aching pains in the lower back region, and they also tend to have problems standing or walking for long periods of time. A Lake Havasu City, AZ physical therapist will be able to assess your pain and make a proper diagnosis.

Sciatica usually develops in people who are between the ages of 30 and 50. Arthritis, bone spurs, and other injuries that can directly impact the sciatic nerve are all conditions that can cause sciatica to develop. Often, we find that as people age, they lose flexibility in their pelvis and hips, which causes the muscles in the hips and gluteal area to become too tight. As a result, the structure and mechanics of the spine are altered and the sciatic nerve is compressed as it travels through these tissues.

Kick back pain once and for all

Back pain will come and go for most people. However, the underlying issues of poor range of motion in your joints, core weakness, and poor muscle coordination are what need to be addressed. If these conditions aren’t taken care of early on, you could be setting yourself up for a future injury to your back, which might even be worse than the pain you’re dealing with now. It’s a good idea to consult with a Lake Havasu City, AZ physical therapist before brushing your issues off in the hopes that they’ll go away on their own.

The good news is that back pain and sciatica are 100% treatable with physical therapy. A PRO Therapy physical therapist will create a special treatment plan for you, and teach you the best exercises and stretches you can do at home, depending upon your diagnosis.

In the beginning of your treatment, your physical therapist will focus on quick pain relief options for you. As your pain decreases, your physical therapist will begin focusing on strengthening your core muscles with certain therapeutic stretches and exercises. The main objective is to  increase  your range of motion, strength, and stamina to prevent you receiving another injury to your spine. Your physical therapist will also teach you exactly how to take care of your spine in general to avoid future problems.

 If you’re dealing with sciatica pain, specific leg stretches can also be included in your treatment plan to loosen the sciatic nerve. This will replenish the nerve’s health, and decrease the amount of pain symptoms you experience daily.So what are you waiting for? You don’t have to live with uncomfortable back pain. If you’re experiencing symptoms of sciatica, or struggle with back pain in general, make a free consult with one of our licensed therapists at PRO Therapy at Lake Havasu City, AZ. Our goal is to help you get back to doing the things you love, pain free.
