Back Pain? Hands-On Treatment, Not Just Exercises.
Whether it's acute lower back pain, a herniated disc, or chronic sciatica, we find the cause and fix it. Manual therapy every visit, three LA locations, same-day appointments.
Back pain is the leading cause of disability worldwide, but it is also one of the most treatable conditions with the right intervention. At Dynamic PT, we do not rely on passive modalities alone. Our therapists conduct a thorough mechanical evaluation to identify the precise cause of your pain, whether it is a disc, a joint, the muscles, or the neural system, and build a hands-on treatment plan that addresses the root cause. Most patients experience significant improvement within the first few visits.

FAQ
Common Questions
Should I rest or stay active with back pain?
Research consistently shows that staying active, within pain tolerance, leads to better and faster recovery than bed rest. Our therapists will guide you through appropriate activity modification from day one.
How is PT different from just going to the gym?
Physical therapy involves a precise diagnosis of the source of your pain and a targeted treatment plan that includes hands-on manual therapy, not just exercise. This addresses the mechanical cause of your symptoms, not just the symptoms themselves.
Can PT help me avoid back surgery?
In many cases, yes. Research shows that physical therapy is as effective as surgery for many disc and stenosis conditions. We will work with your physician and be transparent about when referral for other interventions may be appropriate.
Do you treat back pain caused by a car accident or work injury?
Yes. We are specialists in trauma-related back injuries and accept personal injury liens and workers' compensation for all back conditions.
