Back Pain - Deeping Osteopaths

Osteopathy for Back Pain Relief

Helping You Move More Comfortably and Live with Less Pain

Back pain—often called backache—is one of the most common reasons people seek treatment. It’s estimated that up to 80% of people will experience back pain at some point during their lives. In the UK, back pain leads to millions of lost working days every year.

Back pain can affect people of all ages. It may develop suddenly after an awkward movement or injury, or build up gradually over time. Activities such as lifting, poor posture, or sitting for long periods often contribute. Sometimes, no clear cause can be identified.

Common Causes of Back Pain

Muscle or ligament strain
Poor posture or sedentary lifestyle
Wear and tear of joints (osteoarthritis)
Disc irritation or degeneration
Joint dysfunction or tension
Stress and emotional tension
Lifestyle factors such as being overweight or inactive

Symptoms of Back Pain

Back pain symptoms vary and may include:

Mild stiffness or aching
Sharp or stabbing pain
Restricted movement or stiffness
Nerve-related sensations such as tingling, numbness, or pain radiating into the legs (sciatica)

How Osteopathy Helps Back Pain

At Deeping Osteopaths, our qualified practitioners take time to understand your back pain, assess your posture and movement, and identify potential musculoskeletal causes.

We use safe, hands-on techniques including joint mobilisation, soft tissue manipulation, and stretching. These treatments are tailored to your needs to help relieve tension, improve mobility, and support your body’s natural healing processes.

While many patients experience improvement, results can vary, and If we believe your symptoms need further investigation, we will recommend you see your GP.

Can highly recommend. First visit ever to an osteopath crippled with pain walked out feeling I could go for a run. I am a keen competitive horse rider and was unable to ride. The following day post treatment I competed my young horse in a dressage competition and came second. Emma

So kind helpful and very professional. Completely put me at ease... and got me moving again!! Highly recommended. Cannot recommend Fiona enough!! Again she has got me moving- and we had a laugh whilst she was crunching me - Thankyou so much LD

First visit today. Absolutely superb and really friendly. I shall be back regularly! David

I've used Deeping Osteopaths a number of times over the years and every time they've been great and always able to help. Really friendly, professional and knowledgeable. Thanks to you all. Charlie

Great service and very thorough! Highly recommended RG

Had a visit to see Fiona yesterday, she is amazing. Lovely to talk too, happy and friendly. She really helped my back and neck which have been giving me bother for weeks. I can move without fear and the dull ache the rest of the time has disappeared. When I think of all the years I would put up with the pain or go to the Dr., never again! Louise

Very highly recommended!! 3 weeks before my first ultra marathon I injured my calf and could hardly walk. Michael was brilliant with intensive treatment including acupunture I managed to complete the race last weekend with no pain in my calf. I could not have done it without his care and attention which was first class. Thank you! Claire

Wow :) have just got to say a huge thank you micheal. My first appointment and really didn't think there was much wrong but after this appointment you have shown me that your treatment really is so much better than ending up on tablets and the advice you have given me to follow is so beneficial. feeling sore , what is it they say no pain without gain . And i have gained my movement back in my neck which really does feel great. feeling better than I have done in recent years. Like my husband was sceptical at first, now I believe this is the right route for us to go. Thank you very much for all your help. 5* for you and your team keep up the good work its very much appreciated. H HF

Michael did an fantastic job of relieving the constant pain I was getting in my left arm by treating the actual cause of the problem in my back and neck. After several months of suffering from ongoing pain and taking painkillers Michael expertly diagnosed the problem and treated it with two separate sessions over owner week. I wouldn’t hesitate to visit Deeping Osteopaths again and would highly recommend. KW
