Back Pain

We can help your back pain quickly and naturally.

“I thought I had ruined my back for good. The physical therapy, exercises, & dry needling made a huge difference. My lower back and hip pain are no longer an interference to my daily routines. I feel 100% better today. Thank you, Ashley.” -Brian S.


Do you have a history of back pain, or have you had back pain in the past 30 days? Does your back “go out” frequently or do you avoid certain activities because you know it will bother your back? Does your pain move from your back down the back of one or both of your legs? If you said “yes” to any of these questions, you would benefit from physical therapy to address the underlying cause of your back pain, rather than just living with it.

During your first appointment at 21st Century Rehab, you will meet with a Doctor of Physical Therapy who specializes in treating your condition. A full assessment will take place and you will be educated about the cause of your symptoms as well as treatment options. An individualized program will then be determined between you and your PT to best address your pain, and help you get back to normal again!

We treat: low back pain, sciatica, stenosis, radiculopathy, herniated or ruptured disc, degenerative joint or degenerative disc disease, SI or sacroiliac pain, thoracic pain, rib pain, arthritis, thoracic outlet syndrome.
