Pelvis & Back Pain Treatments

We’ll soon have you back on track

YOUR PELVIS & BACK

Pulled muscles, scoliosis, sciatica, leg length discrepancy and non-specific lower back pain are just some of the many pelvis and lower back issues that lead our patients to seek treatment with us. Patients affected by these conditions include athletes who participate in running and walking for exercise and are often susceptible to pulled muscles. Pregnant women suffer lower back and pelvic pain during pregnancy due to changes in their bodies. Scoliosis and sciatica sufferers come to us for treatments to bring relief from their back and pelvis pain.

With detailed examination and gait analysis, we aim to solve the underlying cause of your pelvis & back aches and pains and treat accordingly. Stretches and exercises and orthotics can be of enormous benefit for pelvis and back pain treatment and will aid your recovery.

Orthoses for Pelvis & Back Pain

Ian Sadler, the lead clinician at Norfolk's BxClinic, is a renowned expert in the field of orthoses. Orthotic treatment (tailored inserts that fit into your shoes) is hugely beneficial for treating lower back and pelvic pain.

Your back and pelvis provide the stability centre for your body. The slightest misalignment in this structure leads to poor biomechanical movements in your back and pelvis, hips, knees and feet. Functional scoliosis is caused by poor biomechanics. If you have leg length discrepancy, it affects your gait (walk) and your lower body biomechanics and causes pelvis and lower back pain.

Well crafted custom-made orthotics act like a piece of tailored ground to walk on, they correct your body’s alignment and alleviate the pain and stresses placed on the lower back and pelvis.

Stretches & Exercises for Pelvis & Back Pain

Your back and pelvis are a major stability centre for your body and work in a tension/compression matrix of soft tissue to hold you up and drive your walking and running. The smallest misalignments in the matrix can put constant and repeated stress on your pelvis and lower back.

At BxClinic we look to correct these misalignments through a range of measures including stretches and exercises for the pelvis and lower back. We use these for strengthening and improving your range of motion.

Individually prescribed exercises can be hugely beneficial for reducing the pain and soreness associated with sciatic pain and lower back pain. Pelvic stretches and exercises are essential for women during pregnancy to keep flexibility and mobility in the lower back, hips and pelvis. They also help alleviate pain in the lower back that typically accompanies pregnancy. Pelvic floor exercises are vital for both women and men for maintaining strong pelvic floor muscles.

Referrals

BxClinic specialises in biomechanics and we work within the scope of our practice and expertise to deliver the best possible care and outcomes for our patients. There are times when our assessments of a patient’s condition determine that the best course of treatment is with a clinician of a different expertise.

A good example of this might be a soldier who presents with lower back pain, which on assessment is found to be caused by a poor fitting further complicated by incorrect boot lacing. We work with local outdoors shops and would refer in such cases rather than wrongly treating the presenting symptoms.

We work with a range of partners including physiotherapists, osteopaths, massage therapists, Pilates teachers, sports rehabilitators and local specialist shops.

The brain forgets much, but the lower back remembers everything.
