Back pain is the leading cause of disability worldwide — yet the vast majority of cases respond well to evidence-based physiotherapy. Our Surrey clinic specializes in finding and treating the root cause, not just the symptoms.
Back pain encompasses a spectrum of conditions from acute muscle strain to chronic disc disease. Understanding the underlying cause is essential — identical symptoms can stem from very different pathologies, each requiring a different treatment approach.
At Move to Motion, every back pain assessment begins with a comprehensive movement screen, neurological testing, and detailed history to identify whether your pain originates from disc, joint, muscle, nerve, or a combination of structures.
Joint mobilization, manipulation, and soft tissue therapy to restore segmental mobility and reduce pain immediately.
Precise intramuscular needling to release deep paraspinal trigger points and reduce nerve sensitization driving chronic pain.
Computerized traction reducing intradiscal pressure and retracting herniated disc material — non-surgical relief for disc injuries.
Deep tissue photobiomodulation to reduce inflammation, accelerate disc and tissue repair, and relieve pain without medication.
Acoustic pressure waves to break down calcific deposits and stimulate repair in chronically inflamed facet joints and tendons.
Progressive core strengthening and movement retraining to stabilize the spine and prevent recurrence.
Your first appointment involves a comprehensive assessment — movement analysis, neurological screening, postural evaluation, and a detailed pain history. Treatment begins in your very first session, typically combining manual therapy with education and a targeted home exercise program.
Most acute back pain resolves significantly within 4–8 sessions. Chronic or disc-related conditions typically require 8–16 sessions with a progressive rehabilitation component. ICBC and WorkSafeBC cover back pain treatment for eligible claims.
