BACK PAIN – PUT IT BEHIND YOU.

www.kieser.com.au

There’s no short-term solution to back pain. Medications and massages can provide temporary relief, but your symptoms will likely return if you don’t address the source of the problem. In order to address the source – you must rehabilitate the muscle groups that have been weakened by injury. The Kieser physiotherapy method identifies and assesses the source of your problem and strengthens your body to decrease pain and prevent recurrence. We’ll not only relieve your pain, but make you stronger for life. For a long term solution to back pain call 1300 543 737 and book an appointment today.
