Spinal pain

Sufferers of back or neck pain will know only too well the day to day struggles of living with back and neck pain. It is something that affects most people at some point in their lives. Although the pain is usually temporary, for some it becomes a debilitating condition that can affect your quality of life.

If appropriate they may suggest exercises you can carry out at home as preventative measures after treatment or specialist physiotherapy advice.
