Our treatment methods depend on what caused your lower back pain.

Pulled muscle or muscle spasm​

This is one of the quickest issues to heal and rehabilitate, and could just require some massage therapy, coupled with some stretching exercises to perform at  home.

Poor posture​

Poor posture when sitting, standing or lifting can cause stress to your spine. Treatment could involve massage or stretching.

Ligament sprains​

These could be treated with ice packs to reduce pain and swelling and some exercises to build up strength.
