Frequently Asked Questions
Is it safe to have physiotherapy at home for lower back pain?
Yes. Home physiotherapy for lower back pain is safe when delivered by a PPTA/AHPC registered physiotherapist. Your therapist conducts a full assessment before starting treatment, works within a safe pain range, and will not perform any technique that is not clinically appropriate for your specific presentation.
Can home physiotherapy treat sciatica?
Sciatica caused by lumbar nerve irritation responds to specific physiotherapy techniques including nerve mobilisation, lumbar mobilisation, and targeted stretching. Your physiotherapist will assess whether home physiotherapy is appropriate at your stage of presentation or whether imaging is advisable first.
How many physiotherapy sessions will I need for back pain?
This depends on the cause and severity. Acute mechanical back pain may respond in 4–8 sessions. Chronic, disc-related, or recurrent back pain typically requires a longer programme. Your physiotherapist will provide a realistic estimate after the first assessment and adjust it as treatment progresses.
