Back Pain Treatment at Pacific Physiotherapy in Guelph, Mississauga, & Hamilton

It is estimated that approximately 80% of the global population experiences low back pain at least once in their lifetime. Among the working population, about 50% admit to experiencing low back pain annually. This prevalent issue also leads to millions of on-the-job injuries annually, resulting in substantial costs of approximately 100 billion dollars in lost wages, decreased productivity, medical expenses, and time.

While various treatment options are available, many of them merely address the symptoms without targeting the underlying cause of the pain or providing long-term relief.
