Physical Therapy for Back Pain

Back Pain Relief

Back Pain Relief

Back pain isn’t just an inconvenience — it can keep you from doing the things you love, whether that’s gardening, golfing, or simply playing with your grandkids. For older adults, it’s one of the most common reasons for limiting activity… but it doesn’t have to be permanent.

If you’ve been told that back pain is “just part of getting older,” we’re here to challenge that idea. Your body is adaptable — and with the right plan, you can build strength, reduce pain, and get back to the life you want. #oldNOTweak

At Hyphen, our approach to back pain starts with finding the root cause — not just treating symptoms. We take the time to understand how your pain started, what movements are difficult, and what goals matter most to you.

Our team of Doctors of Physical Therapy will guide you through a personalized plan that may include:

  • Targeted strength training for seniors to build resilience

  • Flexibility and mobility work to improve movement

  • Posture and core stability exercises

  • Manual therapy, dry needling, or e-stim for pain relief
