Physiotherapy for Back Pain Colchester, Essex 

There are many things to consider when treating Back pain. Identifying which structures may be involved is important but equally important is the therapist's understanding of the environment that you live and work in. We offer a range of comprehensive treatments to help alleviate your back pain and improve your quality of life. We care about our clients, which is why we’ve dedicated over 40 years to helping people from across the UK to rid themselves of back pain. 
 
Back pain can be acute (caused through injury) or it can be insidious or chronic (has occurred without injury or been around for a long time) 
Acute back pain can be treated by the same principles as any soft tissue injury, treatment modalities can be used to optimise healing and reduce pain. Chronic back pain requires a guided approach which considers function, pacing and exercise to make you stronger and more tolerant of discomfort. 
 
Whether you only require standard physiotherapy or you’re looking for something more intensive, we would be happy to help. Furthermore, if you don’t know what you need just yet, our highly knowledgeable and experienced team members will confidently point you in the right direction.

"I recently saw Carl Green at Colchester Physiotherapy & Sports Injury Clinic for some pain I was having in my back as well as some previous issues with my knee. 
 
Carl instantly made me feel relaxed and addressed all my concerns. He was patient listening to my story, and undertook a thorough investigation into the issue. Afterwards he gave me a clear plan to follow and we had a short gap before a follow up appointment to establish my next steps. I am now on my way to fully recovering and am really grateful for his help. 
 
He was extremely professional and a joy to work on these issues with. The reception staff were also a real delight and it really made my day on my final appointment when they congratulated me for finishing up my treatment. It's very easy for physios and others in a similar profession to keep you coming back for their own financial gain but here they only had my recovery at the forefront and didn't make me once worry about anything. 
 
I can't recommend this physio enough and if I have any issues in the future I'll be going straight back to them and Carl!"
