Why Am I Still in Pain After Putting Up With It for 3-6 Months? (Sometimes Longer!)”

When we have back discomfort, the majority of us believe it will go away on its own.

We believe there is a wonderful moment when you wake up one morning and your problem has vanished. But 6 months later, you’re dealing with even worse chronic back pain – often much worse than you were before.

Does It Describe You?

One of the most aggravating things we encounter in our clinic is clients coming in with persistent lower back pain and telling us their previous doctor encouraged them to “rest” and take pain relievers. What is the issue? It’s not working! They would have returned to their doctor, frustrated and in pain if they had not visited our clinic in Minneapolis-St. Paul for physical therapy for their lower back pain.

Has Something Similar Happened to You?

It’s difficult to determine what’s best for your back discomfort. You’ve been told so many different things by people in positions of power. Unfortunately, the majority of it is useless!

It’s not just about what you do when it hurts, but also how frequently you do it. The more frequently an area grows weaker or an injury worsens as a result of improper mobility and posture, the more difficult it will be to work that section of your body. If we do not take steps to restore balance with strengthening workouts tailored specifically for those areas, you will have persistent pain.

Do You Feel the Same Way?

Back discomfort is frequently a perplexing ailment that individuals simply accept as “the way things are.” What else may explain why backache lasts so long? It can be difficult to know what to do because there have been so many varied directions offered by different sources, with little legitimacy behind them all!

I went to Dr. Pete for shoulder pain after a sports injury. Dr. Pete was very knowledgeable, and he tailored our work to the equipment I had available. He answered any and all questions that came up, and followed up with me on progress, when applicable.

I went into Revival Physical Therapy a little skeptical after seeing an ad on social media. But after my initial session with Dr. Sierra, I was convinced she could help me regain my full range of motion.

I have been going to Revival for 3 months now for preventative maintenance for running and they have been great especially Dr Sierra. We have been able to address any little niggles that may come up to ensure they do not develop into bigger issues.
