FAQ: Lower Back Pain Rehabilitation & Corrective Exercise in London

What actually causes lower back pain?

Lower back pain can come from all sorts of mischief — weak core muscles, long hours sitting like a pretzel, poor posture, muscular imbalances, stress, or old injuries that never got the VIP rehab treatment they deserved. Sometimes joints, discs, or nerves get irritated; sometimes it’s simply a body saying, “Mate… stretch me.”

How can corrective exercise help my lower back?

Corrective exercise strengthens the muscles that support your spine, improves mobility where you’re stiff, and calms down areas that are overworking. It’s like giving your body a tune-up at a boutique garage — except without the greasy overalls.

Do I need a diagnosis before starting rehabilitation?

It’s always ideal to speak with a medical professional if you’ve got sharp, radiating, or persistent pain. But for general lower back discomfort caused by posture, weakness, or muscle imbalance, a specialist in corrective exercise can assess movement and create a safe plan.

Can you help if my pain is linked to a desk job?

Absolutely. Desk-based backs are practically a London epidemic. With tailored mobility work, postural corrections, ergonomic advice, and strengthening routines, we get you from “stiff as the Northern Line at rush hour” to “moving like someone who can still touch their toes.”

How long does it take to see improvements?

Many people feel relief within a few sessions. Significant improvements in strength, posture, and movement usually show within 6–12 weeks with consistent practice. Think of it as Netflix — results come faster when you don’t take three-week breaks between episodes.

Is lower back rehabilitation painful?

Rehab should feel challenging, sometimes awkward, but never agonising. Good corrective exercise reduces pain rather than creates it. If anything hurts in a “my back is throwing a tantrum” way, the program gets adjusted immediately.

What types of exercises are used?

Expect a mix of core stability training, hip mobility, glute activation (your glutes will get quite the wake-up call), spinal mobility drills, and functional strength work. The goal: move better, feel stronger, and stop your back from acting like a diva.

Do you work with people who have long-term or chronic pain?

Yes — long-term pain often responds really well to a personalised corrective approach. We build strength gradually, retrain movement patterns, and use a holistic plan that includes nutrition, sleep, and stress management where needed.

Can corrective exercise help prevent future back pain?

Absolutely. Once the root causes are addressed, strengthening the right muscles and improving mobility dramatically reduces the chance of flare-ups. Think of it as long-term insurance… except you don’t need to read 47 pages of small print.

Do you offer one-to-one sessions in London?

Yes — tailored one-to-one sessions are available in London, including Battersea and surrounding areas. Ideal if you prefer expert guidance, form correction, accountability, and a friendly nudge when you need it.

Can you help alongside physiotherapy, chiropractic, or osteopathy treatments?

Definitely. Corrective exercise works beautifully after or alongside treatments from a physiotherapist, chiropractor, or osteopath. It stabilises the improvements and helps your body stay in the happy place they put it.

Is this suitable if I’ve had a previous injury or surgery?

In most cases, yes — with proper assessment. Programs are tailored to meet you exactly where you are in your recovery, keeping everything safe, progressive, and surgeon-approved.
