A progressive pathway back to meaningful activity

Stage 01

Understand

Build a clearer understanding of your pain, current capacity and the factors influencing the activities you find difficult.

Stage 02

Rebuild

Use individualised exercise, gradual exposure and progressive strengthening to develop capacity and confidence.

Stage 03

Return

Progress towards the demands of your chosen exercise, sport, work or everyday activities.

Rehabilitation is adjusted according to your response and progress rather than following a fixed, one-size-fits-all program.

What to expect at your first appointment

Your first appointment provides time to discuss your lower-back pain, health history, current activities and goals. You will then complete a relevant physical assessment and develop a clear starting plan tailored to your needs.
