BACK PAIN WOES : SURGERY ISN'T ALWAYS THE ANSWER - TAILORED REHAB MAY BE WHAT YOU ARE LOOKING FOR!

Updated: Dec 2, 2023


Hey there, fellow Earth-dwellers! Let's talk about something that's been a constant companion for many of us – back pain. It's like that annoying friend who just won't take a hint and leave the party.


The truth is, you're not alone. Backache is a global issue, and if you've been feeling the burn in your lumbar region, you're in good (or not-so-good) company.

Did you know that a staggering number of people around the world are dealing with back pain - to be exact 619 million -? It's like a secret society, except no one really wants to be a part of it.

The interesting twist is that only a small percentage of this back pain brigade actually needs surgery.

Yep, you heard that right – surgery isn't always the knight in shining armor coming to rescue you from the clutches of back pain.

Our multidisciplinary team, a bunch of passionate individuals from various fields, has made it their mission to help you avoid joining the ranks of those who need surgery.

At Fit2Go Clinic you will find physiotherapists, psychotherapists, sports injuries rehabilitation experts and of course our specialists will be able to tailor your health needs with injection therapies, the latest shockwave and tecar therapy or whatever is best for you!

We're not anti-surgery, mind you. Sometimes it's absolutely necessary, like the superhero swooping in to save the day. The great thing is we have in house superhero's to help you if you get to that stage. However, we're all about exploring the alternatives first, because let's face it, surgery is a big deal, and if there's a less invasive path, why not take it?

So, what's the deal with this epidemic of back pain? Well, blame it on our modern lifestyles. Whether it's hunching over screens, lugging around heavy backpacks, or spending too much time on the couch binge-watching your favorite shows – our backs are taking a beating. It's like they didn't sign up for this in the evolutionary contract.

Now, here's the kicker – most back pain doesn't actually scream, "Cut me open!" Sure, there are cases where surgery is the best option, like when there's a serious structural issue or a stubborn disc that just won't behave. But for many of us, the solution lies in a different direction.

Our multidisciplinary team is like the Avengers of back pain. We've got sports injury physiotherapist, physical therapists, nutritionists, and even mindfulness experts on board. It's not just about fixing the immediate pain; it's about addressing the root causes and preventing it from becoming a recurring nightmare.

We get it – the idea of surgery can be daunting. It's like going into battle with a sledgehammer when sometimes all you need is a carefully wielded scalpel. Our goal is to keep you out of the operating room unless absolutely necessary. We're not promising a miracle cure, but we're offering a holistic approach that considers your entire well-being.

So, if you're tired of wincing every time you bend down to tie your shoes or feeling like your back is staging a rebellion, maybe it's time to consider alternatives. Surgery might be the last chapter in your back pain saga, and we're here to help you explore the many chapters that come before it.

Join us on this journey towards a back-pain-free existence. Let's kick that pesky ache to the curb and reclaim our lives – one pain-free step at a time.
