The Challenges of Back Pain
Back pain may be more common than you realise. Did you know that up to 80% of the population will experience back pain at some point during their lives? And yet, countless Australians find themselves simply putting up with the pain. They live with daily discomfort and never even investigate whether something could be done about their pain.
Your back and spine are crucial to your overall physical well-being. Back pain can be extremely stressful, ultimately affecting all areas of life. Work, school, leisure, exercise, relationships… the list could go on. Even the simplest daily task can become an insurmountable challenge when your back is in pain. For so many people, their back pain is holding them back from living life to its fullest – but this doesn’t have to be the case.

Common Causes of Back Pain
In most cases, back pain is not associated with a serious underlying condition. It is very common for discomfort to be the result of natural misalignment, posture, or lifestyle habits. Generally speaking, it is difficult to identify precisely which structure is directly causing the pain. When assessing back pain, the first step will always be to rule out something more serious, such as issues with spinal function.
If there was no acute injury that started your back pain and there isn’t a single joint, misc, or muscle at fault, then the cause is probably something broader. Upper and lower back pain alike are often the result of a combination of structures or movement patterns.
- Repetitive or heavy lifting
- Poor posture
- Poor workplace ergonomics
- Long hours sitting or standing
- Sudden awkward movement
- Lack of regular physical activity
- Being overweight
- Muscle tension due to stress

Physio for Lower Back Pain
Physiotherapy is one of the ways that you can manage your back pain. Working with a physio may help with your back pain recovery and enable you to return to the active and comfortable lifestyle you deserve. A physio is a highly qualified and experienced health professional, with a unique understanding of the impacts of back pain. By working with a physiotherapist, you will receive a pain management plan tailored to your symptoms, needs, and personal preferences.
Your physiotherapist will provide a thorough assessment to identify the cause of your back pain, the severity of your discomfort, and the right form of care. This will include an examination of the characteristics of your pain and how it impacts your daily life.
From there, your physio can support your recovery using a wide range of approaches. This may include hands-on treatments, exercises and stretches, education about your body, and other lifestyle advice. You and your physio will be partnering up to find the best options to alleviate your pain.

Your Back Pain Questions Answered
While over-the-counter pain relief may be able to provide some reduction to your pain, it isn’t a long-term solution. Getting rid of back pain instantly is rarely an option. But, with the support of an experienced physio, you may find significant relief and build sustainable habits to keep your back pain away.
There are many, many different causes of back pain. One of the most common reasons we come across, however, is lifestyle. Nowadays, so many Australians find themselves sitting at a desk all day or remaining sedentary, which can significantly damage our backs. Another typical cause is our posture and exercise habits!
Everyone’s journey is different. After completing a full assessment of your symptoms and medical history, your physio may be able to give you a better idea of what your road to recovery may look like. The number of sessions you need will depend on the severity of your back pain, your lifestyle, and your recovery goals.
It is not uncommon for leg symptoms to be associated with lower back pain. This condition is often referred to as ‘sciatica’, and can be due to a couple of different causes. Sciatica typically feels like pains radiating through the buttocks or back of the thighs. A physiotherapist will be able to assess the pain and treat it accordingly.
