Physiotherapy Assessment for Back Pain

 

Back pain may have many causes, and the appropriate way to narrow down the muscle or condition responsible for it is to have a physiotherapy assessment for back pain. In this video watch out physiotherapist, Gina Concepcion, explain more about this procedure:

The back pain assessment will occur during the first appointment with our physiotherapist. It will begin with a complete assessment of your general health. Then our physiotherapist will examine your back pain and ask you to perform certain specific motions that will help her determine the exact location of your pain. Any tests required will be performed as needed. Once the assessment process is finished, our physiotherapist will work with you in a treatment plan that is personalized to your current needs and towards preventing future problems she might perceive.
