Back Pain
Wake up with back pain, pain can travel down into the leg, and you feel more pain when bending forward to wear pants, to put on your socks, these are the signs and symptoms recognized as lumbar nerve impingement.
Why Rehab?
Because we can combat this inflammation with lumbar spine mobilization and nerve sliding technique by increasing mobility of the nerve itself hence desensitizing the nerve which helps to disperse inflammation around the nerve and get you out of back pain.
Lumbar Impingement Recovery time
Back pain can be associated with sciatica of the lower limb, where the lumbar disc and nerve root are inflamed. 3~4 sessions of manual therapy in the first 2 weeks should be able to improve the symptoms and allow you to bend forward with better range. Next, back strength exercises and motor control can be the interventions to minimize risk of recurrence of your back pain.
