Back Pain

As a holistic physical therapist, I understand the challenges that come with back pain. In the realm of physical therapy and healthcare, back pain is a common concern affecting many. Whether it's injury-related, chronic or acute conditions, pregnancy or postpartum changes, poor posture, muscular imbalances, misalignments, or a weak core – I've got you covered.

Some common back pain causes:

Injuries can lead to sudden acute pain, which if not managed properly, may become chronic.

Chronic back pain, often a result of issues like disc degeneration or spinal stenosis, can be debilitating. Acute pain, on the other hand, is a warning sign that something is wrong and requires attention.

Pregnancy and the postpartum period bring their own set of challenges, with physiological changes affecting posture and increasing pressure on the spine.

Poor posture, muscular imbalances, and misalignments over time contribute significantly to back pain.

Sitting or standing for prolonged periods, improper lifting, and harmful habits like slouching can take a toll.

A weak core is also a common contributor to back pain.

At Holistic Physical Therapy and Pilates, we take a comprehensive approach. We conduct a thorough evaluation to identify the root cause and create a personalized treatment plan integrating physical therapy, Pilates, and lifestyle education to enhance core strength, improve posture, and facilitate optimal alignment.

Back pain is complex, but with our holistic approach, we can effectively manage it, improve your quality of life, and prevent future discomfort. Seek professional advice for persistent back pain to ensure you receive the tailored care you deserve.

Our Happy Customers

  • "Olga is a wonderful physical therapist and has a tremendous amount of expertise in managing pain and inflammation. She leverages a range of techniques including manual lymphatic drainage massage which I was relatively new too and it helped a lot. She has a kindness and empathy for her clients that is remarkable."

    Andrea deSouza

  • "Hands-down the best I've ever worked with. Her knowledge of the body is simply unmatched. I've had physical therapists work on one muscle or muscle group before, but Olga knows how each group connects to each other group and how one thing can impact another. She's taught me correct posture, correct breathing, and more, which have made a massive impact on my daily pain and general life happiness."

    Ryan Nelson

  • "Pilates used to scare me - I never thought I’d be able to do something that seems so intense. But Evellin makes the challenge fun, and slowly has taught me how to use the machines and how to do more complex exercises as my body has gotten stronger. She is also so patient with me and makes each session so fun. Olga and Evellin have been such an integral part of my recovery and are such wonderful and empowering women."

    Aoife O’Shea
