    Spine Rehabilitation in Nairobi

    Comprehensive Spinal Care

    Comprehensive cervical, thoracic, and lumbar spine rehabilitation for disc, nerve, and facet conditions.

    Introduction

    Spinal conditions can be complex and debilitating. Our orthopedic spine rehabilitation programs address the mechanical faults causing your back or neck pain.

    Spine Rehabilitation is one of our specialized treatments under our Orthopedic Physiotherapy services.

    Common Causes & Conditions

    • Herniated or bulging discs
    • Spinal stenosis (narrowing of the spinal canal)
    • Spondylolisthesis (slippage of a vertebra)
    • Facet joint arthritis
    • Post-spinal surgery (laminectomy, fusion)

    Symptoms to Watch For

    • Localized pain in the neck or lower back
    • Radiating pain down the arm or leg (sciatica)
    • Numbness, tingling, or weakness in the extremities
    • Pain that worsens with specific movements (bending, extending)
    • Muscle spasms in the back

    How It Helps

    We utilize specific movement strategies to decompress nerves, stabilize hypermobile segments, and mobilize stiff areas, restoring a healthy, pain-free spine.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    Do I need an MRI for my back pain?

    In most cases, a clinical assessment is sufficient to begin treatment. If you have 'red flag' symptoms (like severe weakness or bowel/bladder changes), we will refer you for immediate imaging.

    Is it safe to lift things if I have a bad back?

    Yes, provided you use the correct technique and have built the necessary core strength. We will teach you how to lift safely to protect your spine.
