Back pain is a prevalent issue that affects people of all ages, significantly impacting their quality of life. In Ottawa, MOOV Physiotherapy stands as a beacon of hope for those suffering from this debilitating condition. Our approach to back pain relief is not just about treating the symptoms but understanding and addressing the root cause of the pain.
The Prevalence of Back Pain
Statistics reveal that back pain is one of the leading causes of disability worldwide, affecting the daily lives of millions. The complexity of the human back, with its intricate structure of bones, muscles, and ligaments, makes it susceptible to injury and chronic pain.
Chronic back pain can severely impact one's daily activities, limiting mobility and reducing the ability to work or enjoy leisure activities. It's not just a physical challenge but can also lead to psychological effects, such as stress and depression, due to prolonged discomfort and lifestyle limitations.
Understanding Back Pain
Back pain can manifest in various forms, from a dull, constant ache to a sudden, sharp sensation. Understanding the different types and causes of back pain is crucial in determining the most effective treatment approach.
Your Journey Towards Back Pain Relief
At MOOV Physiotherapy, we understand that each individual's journey to back pain relief is unique. Our team of experts is dedicated to guiding you through a personalized treatment plan designed to address your specific needs.
Your treatment journey begins with a comprehensive assessment. Our physiotherapists will conduct a detailed evaluation, including a review of your medical history, a physical examination, and possibly diagnostic tests to understand the nature and extent of your back pain.
Based on the assessment, we develop a treatment plan tailored to your specific condition and pain levels. This plan may include a combination of different therapies and techniques to ensure the most effective relief and recovery.
Physiotherapy plays a crucial role in treating back pain. Our physiotherapists use a variety of techniques to reduce pain, improve mobility, and strengthen the back to prevent future injuries.
Techniques Include:
Building Strength and Flexibility
A core element of our approach is strengthening and increasing the flexibility of the back. This not only helps in alleviating current pain but also plays a significant role in preventing future back issues.
Dry needling, also known as Intramuscular Stimulation (IMS), is a specialized technique that has shown significant results in the treatment of chronic back pain.
How Dry Needling Works
This technique involves inserting fine needles into specific trigger points in the muscles. The process helps release knots and relieve muscle tension, leading to pain reduction and improved mobility.

The duration for seeing improvements can vary depending on the individual's condition and the severity of the back pain. Some patients may experience relief after a few sessions, while others might need a longer treatment period. Our physiotherapists will provide an estimated timeline during your initial assessment.
While not all back pain can be prevented, many causes can be mitigated with proper care. This includes maintaining good posture, regular exercise, proper lifting techniques, and ergonomic adjustments in daily activities. Our team can provide guidance on preventive measures tailored to your lifestyle.
Telerehab has been proven effective for many patients, especially for those who have difficulty traveling to the clinic. It offers the convenience of receiving professional guidance and personalized care from your home. The effectiveness of Telerehab can be comparable to in-person sessions for certain conditions and treatment plans.
This depends on the nature and severity of your back pain. Our physiotherapists will advise you on which activities are safe to continue and which ones to avoid during your treatment period. The goal is to ensure your activities do not aggravate your condition while promoting healing.

A Physical Therapist and a Physiotherapist are both health care professionals who specialize in the assessment, diagnosis, treatment and prevention of musculoskeletal conditions. The main difference between the two is that a Physical Therapist is trained in the United States while a Physiotherapist is trained in Canada.
A Physiotherapist is not necessarily better than a doctor, but they are specialized in the assessment and treatment of musculoskeletal conditions. A Physiotherapist can provide you with an individualized plan of care that is tailored to your specific needs.
