Getting back in the game after an injury can feel overwhelming. We know how important staying active is to you, and we're here to support your recovery every step of the way.

Our osteopaths understand sports injuries because we've helped countless athletes return to their peak performance. We use the same advanced treatments trusted by AFL teams and Olympic athletes, including shockwave therapy and laser therapy.

At Pakenham Osteopathy, we don't just treat the injury - we help you understand how to prevent future problems too. Our goal is to get you back to doing what you love, stronger than before.

Recovery takes time, but you don't have to do it alone. We'll work with you to create a plan that fits your goals and lifestyle.

Lower Back Pain: You’re Not Alone 🪑💢

Chronic lower back pain is one of the most common reasons people seek healthcare. It can sneak up after hours at a desk, heavy lifting at the gym, or even repeatedly bending to pick up the kids or shopping bags.

Often, it involves overworked muscles like the erector spinae (which keep you upright) or the quadratus lumborum (which helps you bend and stabilise your spine). Imbalances, weakness, or restricted movement in these areas (or others) may place extra strain on the lower back.

So if your back needs a little TLC, you’ve come to the right place. We’ll start with a thorough assessment and aim to find the root cause of your discomfort and tailor a treatment plan to get you moving well again.

Give our friendly team at Pakenham Osteopathy a call today on 5941-4157 or book online here: https://www.pakenhamosteopathy.com.au/book-online/ and we’ll see you in the clinic really soon!
