Back pain physio in Colac
Back pain can limit everything from basic movement to your ability to work, sleep, and stay active. At Prosper Health, our experienced team offers personalised back pain physio in Colac to help you recover quickly, move freely, and prevent recurrence.
Back pain often starts in the lower or mid-back but can also radiate into the hips, buttocks or legs. Whether your pain is due to a recent lifting injury, long-term poor posture, or an underlying spinal condition, we tailor treatment to suit your specific needs and goals.
Our physiotherapists conduct a comprehensive assessment to identify the source of your pain. This includes evaluating posture, muscle imbalances, joint mobility and potential nerve involvement. From there, we work one-on-one with you to build a treatment plan that targets the root cause, not just the symptoms.
Your physiotherapy for back pain may include:
- Manual therapy to reduce stiffness and restore movement
- Core and mobility exercises to improve strength and control
- Education on lifting technique, posture and daily movement
- Guidance for returning to work, sport or daily activities
If needed, we also conduct safe lifting and manual handling assessments to minimise reinjury, especially for clients in physically demanding jobs.

Back pain frequently asked questions
Back pain can be caused by a range of issues, including poor posture, muscle strain, lifting injuries, disc problems, joint stiffness or nerve irritation. It can also result from repetitive movements, prolonged sitting, or underlying conditions like arthritis. Identifying the exact cause is essential for effective treatment.
Physiotherapy helps reduce back pain by addressing the root cause through manual therapy, targeted exercises, and postural education. It improves mobility, strengthens supporting muscles, and reduces pressure on irritated structures. Your physiotherapist will also guide you on how to prevent future flare-ups.
You should see a physiotherapist if your back pain has lasted more than a few days, keeps returning, or is affecting your ability to move, work or sleep. Early intervention can prevent the issue from worsening and help you recover more quickly and safely.
