Back Pain Treatment Melbourne
Physiotherapy, osteopathy, myotherapy, and exercise physiology — all under one roof. We find the cause of your back pain and treat it at the source.
Why Choose Injury Active
Back pain is the leading cause of disability worldwide — and one of the most common reasons Australians seek allied health care. At Injury Active Clinic, we don't just treat the pain. We identify the root cause — whether that's a disc injury, muscle imbalance, joint dysfunction, or postural problem — and build a treatment plan that addresses it directly.
Our multi-disciplinary team of physiotherapists, osteopaths, myotherapists, and exercise physiologists work together across our four Melbourne clinics to provide integrated, evidence-based back pain treatment that gets lasting results.
Common Causes
Back pain has many causes. Accurate diagnosis is the first step to effective treatment.
Overstretched or torn muscle fibres from lifting, twisting, or sudden movement. One of the most common causes of acute lower back pain.
Bulging or herniated discs that press on nearby nerves, causing local back pain and often referred pain or sciatica down the leg.
Irritation or degeneration of the small joints between vertebrae, often causing stiffness and localised pain that worsens with extension.
Compression or irritation of the sciatic nerve, producing shooting pain, tingling, or numbness from the lower back into the buttock and leg.
Prolonged sitting, poor workstation setup, or muscle imbalances that place sustained load on the spine and surrounding structures.
Age-related degeneration of spinal joints and discs, causing stiffness, reduced range of motion, and chronic aching pain.
Our Approach
We combine multiple disciplines to address the cause of your back pain, not just the symptoms.
Manual therapy, dry needling, and targeted exercise rehabilitation to restore movement and prevent recurrence.

If you spend most of your day sitting — at a desk, in a car, or on a couch — and your lower back aches by mid-afternoon, you are not alone. Lower back pain from prolonged sitting is one of the most common complaints we see at Injury Active Clinic, and it is almost always treatable without surgery or long-term medication.
Sitting for extended periods compresses the lumbar discs, shortens the hip flexors, and switches off the deep stabilising muscles of the spine. Over time, this creates a pattern of pain that worsens through the day and often feels better when you stand or walk. Many patients describe it as a dull ache across the lower back, tightness through the hips, or a stiffness that takes several minutes to ease when they first stand up.
At Injury Active Clinic, we treat desk-related lower back pain with a combination of hands-on manual therapy to restore movement, targeted exercise to rebuild spinal stability, and practical advice on workstation setup and movement habits. Our integrated clinic and gym model means you move from pain management into strength and prevention without ever needing to change clinics.
