What is Spinal Rehabilitation

Spine-related pain is one of the most complex conditions in modern medicine. Back problems are a common complaint, and mastering treatment modalities for the spine remains one of the “final frontiers” in clinical medical practice.

Who Needs Spinal Rehabilitation?

Acute spinal injury: Spraining or straining your spine could leave you bedridden for a significant time. Your injury might have been caused by lifting a heavy object improperly, playing sports, or getting in a car accident.

Chronic spinal conditions: Wear and tear injuries or sudden trauma can lead to chronic spine problems if left untreated. Age-related issues can also cause your spine to ache.

Undiagnosed pain: Perhaps you suffer from chronic low back pain, but you’re unsure why. You don’t need to have a diagnosis of your condition to benefit from spinal rehab.

The Goal of Spinal Rehabilitation

The purpose of rehabilitating the spine is to help mitigate the damage done to your vertebrae, spinal discs, muscles, ligaments, tendons, and nerves, no matter the reason behind it. Managing physical pain and discomfort is another primary goal.

A Physical Therapist plays an integral role in your recovery after a life-altering spinal cord injury This healthcare professional is there throughout much of your spinal cord injury rehabilitation to help guide you toward achieving optimal gains during the recovery process.
