Your lower back is killing you. It started as a niggle, now you can barely get out of bed in the morning.
You've tried painkillers, heat packs, and hoping it'll just go away.
It hasn't.
At TAP Clinics in Warwick, we've treated thousands of back pain cases over 10 years. And I can tell you this: until you understand WHY your back hurts, you'll never fix it properly.
Common Causes of Lower Back Pain in Warwick (And Why They're So Common)
1. Desk Work and Sitting Working in an office in Warwick or Leamington? Sitting 8+ hours a day shortens hip flexors, weakens glutes, and loads your lower back. Eventually, it breaks.
2. Poor Movement Patterns Bending to lift things with a rounded back. Twisting while carrying. Years of bad movement add up.
3. Weak Core and Glutes Your back is taking load that your core and glutes should be handling. Strengthen them, and your back pain disappears.
4. Previous Injury That "healed" back injury from 5 years ago? It didn't actually heal properly. The weakness and compensation patterns are still there.
Types of Back Pain We Treat at TAP Clinics Warwick
Mechanical Lower Back Pain: Muscle and joint pain from poor posture, weak core, or overuse
Sciatica: Nerve pain radiating down your leg from disc problems or piriformis syndrome
Disc Injuries: Bulging or herniated discs causing localiSed or radiating pain
Chronic Back Pain: Long-term pain that's been unsuccessfully treated elsewhere
Postural Back Pain: Pain from desk work, driving, or habitual poor posture
The 3 Things That Actually Fix Back Pain (Warwick Physio Explains)
1. Proper Assessment We need to find the actual cause. Is it your hip mobility? Core weakness? Disc problem? Poor movement patterns? Generic treatment = poor results.
2. Hands-On Treatment Physiotherapy, sports massage, joint mobilisation, dry needling. We need to reduce pain and restore movement.
3. Rehabilitation This is where most treatment fails. You need a proper strengthening program for your core, glutes, and back. Skip this, and the pain comes back.
