Back pain is one of the most common complaints among adults today — often caused by poor posture, stress, injury, or prolonged sitting. Whether it’s a dull ache or sharp discomfort, it can significantly impact your daily life. At Arco Healthcare Clinic, we take a holistic and personalised approach to treating back pain, offering a range of evidence-based therapies designed to relieve discomfort and restore movement.
Here’s a look at the key treatments we offer for back pain:
1. Osteopathy: Gentle, Whole-Body Alignment
Osteopathy is a hands-on therapy that focuses on how your bones, muscles, and joints work together. Our osteopaths use gentle techniques like stretching, joint mobilisation, and soft tissue work to:
- Improve spinal mobility
- Relieve tension in the back muscles
- Restore overall body alignment and function
It’s especially effective for people with postural strain, mechanical back pain, or chronic tension.
2. Physiotherapy: Restore Strength and Function
Physiotherapy is a vital part of back pain recovery. At Arco, our physiotherapists assess your condition thoroughly and design a personalised treatment plan that may include:
- Targeted exercises to strengthen the core and support the spine
- Manual therapy to reduce stiffness and improve flexibility
- Postural advice and movement retraining
Physiotherapy not only relieves pain but helps prevent future episodes by addressing the root cause.
3. Acupuncture: Natural Pain Relief
Acupuncture, a traditional Chinese medicine technique, involves the insertion of fine needles into specific points on the body. It can be especially effective for:
- Chronic lower back pain
- Muscle tightness
- Reducing inflammation and improving circulation
Many of our patients report a significant reduction in pain and improved overall wellbeing after acupuncture sessions.
4. Dry Needling: Targeted Muscle Release
Dry needling is a modern, science-based technique similar in application to acupuncture but focused on musculoskeletal pain. It works by targeting trigger points—tight knots in muscles that cause pain and restrict movement.
Benefits include:
- Quick muscle release
- Reduced nerve irritation
- Improved flexibility and function
It’s particularly helpful for tension-related or sports-related back pain.
5. Massage Therapy: Relax and Recover
Massage therapy is a natural way to ease back pain by relaxing the muscles, improving blood flow, and reducing stress. Our skilled massage therapists use techniques tailored to your needs, whether you’re recovering from an injury or simply feeling the effects of a long work week.
Massage can also be combined with other therapies for enhanced results.
