Back Pain & Sciatica Treatment in Mold

Assessment & Rehabilitation for Lower Back Pain

Lower back pain is one of the most common musculoskeletal complaints. It may relate to joint irritation, disc involvement, muscular overload or nerve irritation.

At Peacock Pain & Injury Clinic, we provide structured assessment and rehabilitation focused on restoring movement confidence and long term resilience.

Lower Back Pain & Stiffness

Early rehabilitation improves mobility and reduces the risk of recurrent flare ups.

Sciatica & Nerve Related Pain

Sciatica occurs when a nerve root in the lower back becomes irritated or compressed. Symptoms may include:

Not all leg pain is true sciatica. A detailed neurological assessment is required to determine whether symptoms are nerve driven or referred from the spine.

If pain is primarily located in the hip region, you may also wish to review our Hip Pain page.

If neurological symptoms are progressive or severe, we advise appropriately regarding medical referral.

Chronic Lower Back Pain Rehabilitation

Back pain lasting longer than three months is considered persistent or chronic.

Chronic pain does not necessarily mean structural damage is ongoing. Often, the nervous system becomes sensitised and movement confidence reduces over time.

Our chronic pain rehabilitation approach includes:

We focus on restoring confidence in movement and rebuilding physical capacity gradually and safely.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is chronic back pain permanent?

Not usually. Persistent pain often improves with structured rehabilitation and gradual rebuilding of strength and confidence.

What is the difference between lower back pain and sciatica?

Lower back pain is typically localised to the lumbar area. Sciatica involves nerve irritation causing pain that radiates into the leg.

Should I rest if my back feels stiff?

Prolonged rest is rarely advised. Gentle movement and progressive loading are usually more effective.

Do I need an MRI scan?

Most lower back conditions can be diagnosed clinically. Imaging is only recommended when specific red flags or neurological concerns are present.

Can lower back pain cause hip discomfort?

Yes. Lumbar referral into the buttock or hip is common.
