Expert Care to Help You Move Comfortably Again
Back pain can affect everyday life from sitting at work to sleeping comfortably or staying active. Whether symptoms develop suddenly or build gradually over time, the right physiotherapy treatment can make a significant difference.
At The Physiotherapy Centre, we provide personalised assessment and treatment for people experiencing back pain across Sittingbourne and Sheerness. Our physiotherapists focus on identifying the true cause of pain and creating practical treatment plans that support long-term recovery, not just short-term relief.
Back pain physiotherapy involves assessing how your spine, muscles, and movement patterns work together. Pain is often linked to weakness, stiffness, posture, or overload rather than a single injury.
Our approach combines hands-on treatment, guided exercise, and education so you can move with confidence again.
