Most types of lower back pain are often referred to physical therapy as one of the first-line treatments. Physical therapy for lower back pain includes guided therapeutic exercises that strengthen the lower back muscles and condition the spinal tissues and joints.
short- and long-term goals of physical therapy for back pain typically include the following:
Decrease painful symptoms in the lower back and/or leg
Improve low back function to tolerate daily activities as independently as possible
Increase the spine’s flexibility and improve its range of motion
Formulate a maintenance program to prevent the recurrence of back problems
The exercises are intended to provide flexibility and strength training to the entire kinetic chain—groups of body segments, joints, and muscles that work together to perform bodily movements.
Physical therapy helps restore the patient’s ability to perform daily activities with little-to-no discomfort. Large-scale studies have shown that physical therapy can provide up to 60% improvement in lower back pain and other symptoms
