Back Pain Relief in Narragansett and Coastal Rhode Island — A Physical Therapy Approach
Life Is Too Short to Live with Back Pain
Whether it’s lifting groceries or paddling out for a surf, back pain can make daily life frustrating. Fortunately, physical therapy offers effective, drug-free relief — and right here in Narragansett and nearby coastal towns, Specialized Orthopedic Physical Therapy provides evidence-based solutions for every type of back issue.
Why Back Pain Happens
Back pain can stem from poor posture, prolonged sitting, repetitive strain, sports injuries, or simply time. Common culprits include:
- Muscle strain or imbalance
- Herniated discs or nerve irritation
- Spinal arthritis
- Poor core stability
Ignoring it rarely helps — early intervention with PT can prevent chronic pain from setting in.
How Physical Therapy Helps
Our therapists identify the root cause of your discomfort and create a customized plan that may include:
- Manual therapy: Gentle mobilization and soft-tissue work to ease tightness.
- Core strengthening: Building the muscles that support your spine.
- Posture training: Correcting mechanics for sitting, standing, lifting.
- Movement re-education: Learning pain-free ways to move.
- Home exercise programs: Simple, personalized routines to continue progress.
Why Local Care Matters on the Coast
Living along the Rhode Island shoreline means staying active — walking, biking, kayaking, surfing. Seeing a local Narragansett physical therapist ensures your treatment fits your lifestyle and the activities you love.
Plus, choosing a nearby clinic reduces travel strain — something crucial when your back already hurts.
