Back Pain

Common Causes of Back Pain

Back pain often develops due to a combination of physical strain, postural habits, and underlying structural or nerve-related factors. Identifying the root causes allows for more effective, long-term care and improved movement.

Muscle Strain & Tension

Overexertion, poor lifting techniques, sudden movements, or repetitive activities can overload the muscles of the back. This may lead to tightness, spasms, inflammation, and ongoing discomfort.

Poor Posture

Prolonged sitting, especially with improper posture, places excessive stress on the spine and surrounding muscles. Over time, this can contribute to chronic back pain and reduced spinal mobility.

Disc Degeneration or Herniation

Spinal discs act as cushions between the vertebrae. With age or repeated strain, discs may wear down, bulge, or herniate, leading to pain, stiffness, or nerve irritation—most commonly in the lower back.

Arthritis

Degenerative joint conditions such as osteoarthritis can affect the spine, causing inflammation, stiffness, and pain in the joints and surrounding tissues.

Sciatic Nerve Irritation

Compression or irritation of the sciatic nerve can result in sharp or burning pain that radiates from the lower back through the hips and down the leg. This is often associated with disc issues or muscular tension.

Injury or Trauma

Accidents, sports injuries, or falls can damage muscles, joints, or spinal structures. If injuries do not heal fully, they may lead to persistent or recurring back pain.

Our Approach at Achieve Health By addressing the underlying causes of back pain, Achieve Health develops personalised care plans focused on restoring movement, reducing discomfort, and supporting long-term spinal health.
