What is Back Physical Therapy?

Back physical therapy utilizes specific stretches and exercises for back pain that work by returning your back and spine to a more natural position. If you have back pain, your back, spine, hips, legs, ankles, and even feet will often start to feel new aches and pains. By using our advanced physical therapy for back pain methods our physical therapists in Brooklyn will focus on the following: restoring alignment, breathing, stretching, exercises, and teaching you to be aware of your posture. While there is no one set cure or magic fix for back pain, Evolve's physical therapy for back pain methods have been proven by many past patients, to greatly reduce back pain, discomfort, and related spine issues in some cases.

Why will our physical therapists focus on restoring alignment, breathing, and posture?

Restoring Alignment & Muscle Symmetry: With the ever-changing curve of your spine you may find that your muscles have shifted. Exercises used with physical therapy for back issues can help you to restore muscle symmetry, as well as the alignment of your spine.

Breathing Exercises: With back physical therapy focusing on breathing is very important. By utilizing rotational angular breathing, you can focus on rotating the spine to assist with reshaping your ribcage and any affected muscle tissue.

Posture Awareness: When someone has back pain or a back injury, there are certain postures that may make their condition worse. Therefore, it is important to be aware of your posture. Once you are aware of how different postures may affect you, it will be easier to begin trying to correct your spinal curve.
