Types of Back Pain We Treat
Lower Back Pain
That nagging ache in your lower back can make even simple tasks like putting on socks feel impossible. Lower back pain often results from poor posture, prolonged sitting, lifting injuries, or joint dysfunction. If you're experiencing pain, stiffness, or restricted movement in your lumbar region, our specialists can identify the underlying cause and develop an effective treatment plan.
Upper Back Pain
Pain between your shoulder blades or in your mid-back can be particularly frustrating, especially when it affects your ability to work at a desk or drive. Upper back pain frequently stems from poor posture, tension, or joint restrictions. Our practitioners use targeted techniques to release tension in the thoracic spine and surrounding muscles, providing both immediate relief and long-term improvement.

Common Causes of Back Pain
Back pain rarely has a simple cause. Our experienced practitioners look beyond the symptoms to identify factors such as:
- Joint dysfunction or misalignment
- Muscle imbalances and tension
- Poor posture at work or home
- Previous injuries that never fully healed
- Stress and tension affecting muscle groups
- Disc problems including bulges or herniations
- Sedentary lifestyle weakening supportive muscles
If you recognise any of these factors in your own situation, don't continue to suffer - give your local clinic a call today to begin your journey to recovery.
How We Treat Back Pain
Unlike many traditional approaches that simply mask symptoms, our treatments address the underlying causes of your back pain.
Here at Peak Chiropractic and Kinesiology we have assembled an expert team of chiropractors, osteopaths and sports therapists, so you can be sure that you'll receive the most approriate treatment when it comes to body manipulation and adjustments. We often use gentle spinal adjustments designed to restore proper joint function and mobility throughout your spine. These are often combined with soft tissue techniques that release muscle tension and improve blood flow to affected areas.
For long-term recovery, we'll provide personalized exercise recommendations tailored to strengthen any weak areas we identify during your assessment. Many back pain sufferers also benefit from our detailed postural advice and ergonomic guidance, which helps prevent pain from returning during daily activities. Throughout your treatment plan, we incorporate specific rehabilitation exercises that build resilience and prevent recurring problems.
We don't believe in 'cookie-cutter' or 'off-the-shelf' treatments. Your back pain is unique, and your treatment plan will be tailored specifically to your needs and lifestyle.

I absolutely couldn’t ask for better treatment!! Drew blows me away with his knowledge on everything!! I have suffered with lower back pain for nearly 18yrs and I’ve always been fobbed off by the nhs with treatment being physio and my diet!!! It was getting to the stage where I could barely walk, stand up from a chair without support from my husband and I used to crawl upstairs on my hands and knees!! No life and very upsetting!! Then I found Peak chiropractic! After my first free consultation, I knew Drew could help me!! We started treatment straight away with spine adjustments and neck cracks!! Sometimes he would work on pressure points in my face/ears/jaw!! But it all worked!!! Payment plans made it affordable for me and I trust Drew implicitly! My aim was to be able to walk around on my holiday to Disney with my kids! I’m now able to walk over 18,000 steps in a day!! My treatment (I’m pleased to say) is not over with Peak Chiropractic. I’ve chosen to keep visiting for support in my structure every month. Plus, I get to have a chat with a friend!!
So if you’re in any pain whatsoever...call them! You won’t regret it!!! You HAVE to see for yourself. Amazing team!

After suffering for far too long I decided to try seeing a Chiropractor to see what they can offer.
The initial consultation was by Jack and since then I've seen Jade and Mason (in that order). In my opinion they are all excellent at what they do and despite my initial scepticism are making good measurable progress.
They are willing to explain the science to you at the start, and answer any questions as the treatments progress. I’m happy with the improved general feeling of wellbeing, flexibility and coordination outside of the clinic in day to day life, but having measurable improvements are a great metric for the sceptical among us.
Each member of the team is knowledgeable and easy to get on with. The reception team have always been available for appointment changes and making bookings.
So far my personal expectations of the treatment and the clinic have been surpassed.

Andrew has assembled a fantastic knowledgeable team here at Peak. What they offer you isn't a quick fix its an investment in your health and wellbeing.
I have visited different Chiropractors in the past and yes I've got some relief but none have ever got to the root of my back problem.
Peak have and I was shocked to find out what was causing it, since being treated my back is the best its ever been in years.
If you want a quick fix no doubt there are plenty of practices who will relieve you of your hard earned cash for little or no long term benefit, if on the other hand you want a long term solution give Peak a call!

After 12 years of back pain and limitations on my day to day life, I'd all but given up.
Thinking I'd be in a mobility scooter before I was 40, when a friend gave me the push to give it a try.
After my first chapter of care the pain was almost all but gone. I never thought that would be possible. I couldn't be more thankful to the team. I've recommended them to a friend already, and I'd definitely recommend the team to others with back issues.
