One of the most common complaints for clients that come to Transform Wellness is back pain. It can be hugely debilitating and painful!
Approximately 1 in 6 people (16.9%) in England have back pain. This includes people of all ages. Lower back pain is often a debilitating condition, located in the spinal lumbar region below the ribcage and above the pelvis. At Transform Wellness we often see clients that have had chronic back pain for multiple years however back pain can vary in intensity, duration and underlying cause for each and every person. The majority of back pain is a result of injury to the joints, discs, muscles or ligaments.
Back pain can be a result from a variety of causes and often a combination of factors create the pain initially as apposed to one cause.
Common causes of back pain include:
Effective treatment for back pain depends on an accurate diagnosis of the underlying cause. At Transform Wellness we pride ourself on our initial examination. On your initial consultation we will figure out a working diagnosis and the cause of your low back pain.
From here we will use the following services to create you a custom care plan to resolve your back pain.
“Before seeking help at Transform Wellness, I felt like I was constantly held back by discomfort, making even simple tasks a challenge. I’ve regained mobility and found relief from the persistent pain I had. Having a combined approach of chiropractic, massage and rehabilitation I feel has been the route to my success.”
– Ethan T.
Prior to your first consultation, our receptionist will confirm your scheduled time, provide clear directions, and offer parking details for our car park. We suggest arriving 15 minutes early to complete our health history and medical questionnaires before meeting with our chiropractors. Following this your consultation will include a medical history review, extensive physical examination, orthopaedic testing, digital posture assessment, InBody assessment, Functional Movement Screen, EMG spine scans and if needed digital X-rays. This will form a complete assessment which we call our wellness score.
After your initial consultation, our chiropractor will establish a working diagnosis and determine if we can assist you. If we can, you will attend a second visit, known as our Report Of Findings. Prior to this appointment, our team will thoroughly analyse your case and develop a personalised care plan to achieve your goals and recovery. During your second visit, our chiropractors will review your wellness score, discuss any X-rays taken, and outline the proposed plan of action.
Treatments at Transform Wellness should not be painful or hurt. Chiropractic adjustments should be comfortable. If you are very sensitive we have many techniques available to provide individualised care. Sports massage is thorough and can be tender when receiving due to extreme muscle tension. Our therapists however will adapt their techniques to meet your sensitivity level. Functional rehabilitation should not hurt. Our specialists will guide you with effective exercises to help yourself within your pain threshold.
The price of our initial consultation and report of findings can be found on our fees page. Your treatment plan following the first two visits may vary in price depending on what services are needed to achieve results. As everyone’s goals and challenges are different there is no one set fee for a care plan. Our plans are tailored 100% to your needs! Our gym memberships are also listed on our fees page.
The answer to this question lies within the nature of the complaint, the diagnosis and the goals in hand. If you have had the problem for a long time it generally takes more time to resolve your problem. The severity of the condition is also an important factor that our professionals will advise on. Back pain and weight loss can equally take time to resolve but within a 2 – 3 month period fantastic results can be made. Our professionals will give you a more accurate personalised timeframe at your report visit.
We ask for 24 hours cancellation if you cannot make an appointment and our team will do our best to re-schedule your appointment. We are very flexible and will endeavour to keep you on your recommended schedule.
