Back & Neck Pain

Exercise Physiology

Core exercises to improve mechanics and relieve spinal tension.

Your spine was built to move

Back and neck pain affects most Australians at some point. For many it settles into a cycle: pain, rest, temporary relief, then the same pain again. Our Exercise Physiologists work on the root cause as well as the symptoms, strengthening the structures that support your spine, improving your posture, and giving you the tools to prevent the next episode.

Looking past the sore spot

The site of the pain is rarely the whole story. Your core stability, hip mobility, shoulder positioning and daily movement habits all feed into spinal health, so we assess the whole movement system. A typical program includes core and spinal stabilisation work, postural retraining, mobility exercises and progressive resistance training. We also deal with the contributing factors outside the clinic, like your workstation setup and how you move through your day.

Your assessment and the first six weeks

The initial assessment evaluates your posture, movement patterns, core strength, and the specific activities that trigger your pain. Sessions are individual, usually weekly, with exercises to practise at home. We track progress and adjust as you improve. Most clients notice meaningful change within four to six weeks.

Common Questions

Not for long. A day or two of relative rest after an acute flare up is reasonable, but prolonged rest weakens the supporting muscles and can make things worse. Gentle, guided movement is nearly always the better option.

In most cases, no. The majority of back and neck pain does not require imaging, and scans often show findings like disc bulges that are common in people with no pain at all. Your therapist will advise if imaging is warranted.

Where this leads

If your back or neck pain has persisted beyond three months, our Chronic Pain program may be the better next step. Hydrotherapy provides a supportive environment for spinal movement early on, and our Physiotherapy team can add hands on treatment.
