Ruth's Back Ache Not Helped Until She Came to Spine Plus
Published: 2 November 2021
Ruth had been dealing with back ache that previous treatment hadn't resolved. Like many patients who come to us, she'd been to other practitioners first without getting to the root cause of the problem.
When Previous Treatment Hasn't Worked
One of the most common things we hear is: "I've tried physio and osteopaths before and it helped a bit, but the problem always came back." This is often because the treatment was managing symptoms rather than addressing the underlying cause.
At Spine Plus, we use a combination of clinical assessment and MRI review to understand what's actually driving your pain. Once we know the cause, treatment is targeted directly at it. For disc-related problems this might mean IDD therapy. For nerve irritation it might mean a combination of TECAR and acupuncture. The approach is matched to the finding, not applied generically.
If previous treatment has given you only temporary relief, call us on 020 8506 1000 to discuss an assessment.
