Back Pain Treatment in Tiruppur
Low back pain is one of the most common reasons people see a physiotherapist. It can follow lifting, a sudden movement or long hours of sitting or standing, and sometimes it starts without an obvious cause.
Understanding back pain
Most back pain improves with the right advice, activity and exercise. Physiotherapy helps you understand what is going on and gives you a clear plan to recover.
Treatment is provided one-to-one by Dr. Ponraj, MPT (Neuro), at our clinic in Karuvampalayam, Tiruppur.
Common causes
- Muscle or ligament strain
- Long periods of sitting, standing or bending at work
- Stiffness and age related changes in the spine

Meet Dr. PonrajFrequently asked questions
Should I rest in bed with back pain?
Long bed rest is not usually recommended. Gentle movement and staying as active as you comfortably can generally helps recovery.
Do I need an X-ray or MRI?
Most back pain does not need a scan. If your assessment suggests one is needed, we will advise you to see a doctor.
How long does recovery take?
It varies. Many people improve within weeks, while longstanding pain may take longer. We will discuss a realistic plan after assessment.
