Managing Mechanical Back Pain with Mimico's Comprehensive Care

Millions of people worldwide suffer from back pain, a prevalent condition that can be debilitating and significantly impact an individual's quality of life. Out of the many types of back pain, mechanical back pain is the most common one, affecting up to 97% of back pain sufferers. But with comprehensive care from Mimico Physiotherapy and Chiropractic Clinic, you can effectively manage this condition and reclaim your life.

What is Mechanical Back Pain?

Mechanical back pain is a broad term that refers to any back pain associated with the movement of the spine. It often results from conditions affecting the spinal structure, such as degenerative disc disease, herniated discs, spinal stenosis, or spinal deformities. These conditions can lead to significant discomfort, making mundane tasks such as bending, lifting, or even walking, quite challenging.

Mimico's Comprehensive Approach to Treating Mechanical Back Pain

At Mimico Physiotherapy and Chiropractic Clinic, we believe in a patient-centered, evidence-based approach to managing mechanical back pain. Our team of registered physiotherapists, chiropractors, and massage therapists work collaboratively to create a personalized treatment plan tailored to your specific needs.

Physiotherapy (MDT)

Our physiotherapists utilize the McKenzie Method or Mechanical Diagnosis and Therapy (MDT), a comprehensive, evidence-based assessment system for diagnosing and treating mechanical back pain. The MDT method is designed to minimize the need for expensive lab tests, procedures, and surgeries, emphasizing patient education and independence. Our therapists will guide you through therapeutic exercises, postural corrections, and preventive strategies that can effectively relieve your back pain.

Chiropractic Care

Chiropractic care can play a critical role in managing mechanical back pain, especially when combined with physiotherapy. Our chiropractors will focus on spinal manipulation and manual adjustment to improve your spinal function, reduce nerve irritability, and enhance your overall health.

Massage Therapy

Whether it's deep tissue massage, sports massage, Swedish massage, or trigger point massage, our massage therapists have the skills and expertise to help alleviate your back pain. Regular massage sessions can increase blood flow, reduce muscle tension, improve flexibility, and enhance relaxation – all beneficial for managing mechanical back pain.

Acupuncture

Acupuncture is an ancient technique that can relieve pain by influencing the body's natural painkillers, endorphins, and enkephalins. By inserting very thin needles into specific points on your body, our acupuncturists can help manage your back pain and improve your overall well-being.

Orthotics and Braces

Custom orthotics and braces can provide the necessary support and alignment to your spine, helping in the effective management of mechanical back pain. Our experts can recommend the best orthotics and braces for your condition and lifestyle, ensuring optimal comfort and functionality.

Pelvic Floor Physiotherapy

Sometimes, mechanical back pain can be related to issues in the pelvic floor. By strengthening these muscles through pelvic floor physiotherapy, we can help reduce your back pain and improve your body's overall functioning.
