Back Pain Specialists in Reno

We Are Back Pain Specialists in Reno, NV

If you are suffering from back pain in Reno, you are definitely not alone. According to the National Institute of Health Statistics, low back pain is the most commonly reported pain condition. Back pain is the leading cause of disability in Americans under the age of 45.

A stunning 26 million Americans between 20 and 64 experience frequent back pain. Men and women appear to be equally impacted by this debilitating symptom, which can be either a dull, constant ache or an intense, sharp sensation that leave the person unable to move.

At Galena Sport Physical Therapy in Reno, our initial treatment focus is to determine the source of your back pain. It can have a variety of triggers, from disc problems to sacroiliac joint dysfunction, from a pulled back muscle to arthritis.

It can also be prompted by lifting something too heavy or being in a motor vehicle accident.

People who live sedentary lifestyles from Monday to Friday and then overdo their exercise on the weekends are also prone to back pain.

We determine if your pain is acute, such as when your nervous system alerts you to possible injury, or chronic, meaning your nervous system has been firing pain signals for at least 12 weeks.

Through the treatment of back pain in our Reno physical therapy clinics, we have had great success with our manual therapy techniques and one-on-one therapies.
