Physical therapy
We bring together physiotherapy and chiropractic care, and work closely with you to plan your treatment.
Physical therapy can help patients with failed back surgery syndrome manage their symptoms and reduce the pain associated with this condition.
Physiotherapy aims to restore movement and function in the spine.
Your physiotherapist will create a treatment plan tailored to your needs, which can include exercises, manual therapy, and modalities such as laser therapy.
Chiropractic Care
Chiropractic care may include spinal adjustments and mobilisation aimed at easing pain and restoring movement. Your clinician will check what is appropriate after your surgery.
Laser Therapy
Laser therapy is a non-invasive treatment that uses laser light applied over the treated area. Many clients find the warmth soothing. The evidence for it is mixed, and results vary.
Spinal Decompression
Spinal decompression (mechanical traction) is not usually suitable after back surgery — see who shouldn’t have it. Your clinician will advise.
