Lower Back Pain Physiotherapy in Indirapuram

Lower back pain physiotherapy in Indirapuram for muscle strain, disc problems, sciatica and postural back pain. Pain relief first, then core and strength work that prevents relapse.

What it is

Lower back pain physiotherapy treats the lumbar spine, the surrounding muscles and the nerves that pass through it. Most cases settle well without surgery when the right load is reintroduced at the right time.

In Indirapuram we commonly see back pain from long commutes, desk work, sudden lifting at home and deconditioning after illness. Back pain in pregnancy needs its own approach, covered under pregnancy back pain physiotherapy.

Symptoms we see

  • Pain across the lower back that worsens on bending or sitting
  • Difficulty standing up straight after sitting
  • Pain travelling into the buttock, thigh or calf
  • Morning stiffness that eases with movement
  • Weakness or numbness in the leg or foot
  • Pain on coughing or sneezing

Common causes

  • Lumbar muscle strain from lifting or sudden twisting
  • Disc bulge or prolapse pressing on a nerve root
  • Facet joint irritation and degenerative changes
  • Weak core and gluteal muscles with prolonged sitting
  • Sacroiliac joint dysfunction
  • Postural overload during long commutes and desk hours

Our approach

Assessment
Movement testing, neurological screening, straight leg raise, core and hip strength testing, and identification of the movement direction that eases your pain.
Treatment
Lumbar traction, IFT and ultrasound for symptom relief, manual mobilisation, McKenzie-based directional exercise, and graded core and hip strengthening.
Home program
A short daily routine, sitting and lifting rules, and a graded walking plan so activity returns steadily.

Frequently asked questions

Should I rest in bed with back pain?
No. More than a day or two of bed rest slows recovery. Gentle movement and walking within comfort help most patients.
Can physiotherapy avoid back surgery?
In most disc-related cases yes. Surgery is considered only for progressive weakness, bladder or bowel changes, or failure of a well-run rehabilitation program.
Is a belt useful?
A lumbar belt can help briefly during severe pain, but long-term use weakens the core. We wean you off it as strength returns.
