Are You a Sports Enthusiast or a Physically Active Adult Experiencing a Hindrance Due to Back Pain?

A Personal Message From William Schopp

Do you have concerns about persistent back pain and stiffness that doesn't improve even after taking ample rest?
Do you feel exasperated because your pain is getting worse despite trying pain medications, massages, or chiropractic treatment?
Are you finding it challenging to resume running or exercising as you fear that your pain might aggravate?
Are you a health-conscious individual seeking a lasting solution to lead a more active lifestyle without being held back by pain?

If any of these questions resonate with you and your answer is “Yes,” then you have landed in the right spot!

It is a widespread belief that back pain is trivial and will resolve on its own. It is also common to attribute it to “sleeping awkwardly” or consider it a universal problem that everyone experiences at some point in their life.

If you find yourself in this situation, you are not alone, and we frequently encounter such cases.

Back pain among runners and athletes is a prevalent issue that we often encounter at our clinic.

Before Visiting the Movement Schopp, Numerous Patients Experiencing Back Pain Are Advised…

Simply "rest" or take a break from exercise, and the pain will eventually subside (only to find that it persists months later).
That it is an inevitable part of aging, and you have to endure it.
Take medication and continue moving and exercising for the remainder of your life.
Surgery and injections are the sole alternatives available.

The Reality of Back Pain Concerning Runners and Athletes Is…

Simply resting doesn't bring about any significant improvement. Although you may experience temporary relief, once you resume your activities, you will continue to experience back pain and stiffness (I'm sure you've already experienced it!).
Developing back pain and stiffness as you age is not a normal occurrence!
Pain medication is addictive, hazardous, and can lead to several other health complications.
Surgery and injections are not the only alternatives available. They are just the only options your surgeon may propose to you.

“ Our Objective Is to Aid Runners and Active Adults in the Torrance Region to Recover From Injuries and Emerge Stronger Than Ever Before, Without the Need for Medications, Injections, or Surgery, All While Avoiding Unnecessary Time Off.”

Given the numerous options available, it can be daunting to determine the appropriate course of action when dealing with a back injury.

You may have attempted a particular stretching regimen that your friend recommended, which was effective for them but not for you.
Visiting another healthcare practitioner or even another physical therapist, but their suggestions or treatment didn't appear to provide any relief.
Pursuing guidance from YouTube "experts" who recommend specific exercises that exacerbate your pain.
Participating in a yoga or pilates session, but the pain slowed you down throughout, leaving you feeling worse than before.

All the while, the physician advises you to rest and consume medication.

When It Concerns Resolving a Serious Issue Like Back Pain and Stiffness…

Selecting the appropriate healthcare provider is crucial for addressing something as serious as back pain and stiffness.

If you don’t, you may end up undergoing hazardous surgery (when it wasn’t necessary) or becoming reliant on addictive pain medication for the rest of your life. It’s essential to receive the “least-invasive”, most natural treatment to stop your back pain and stiffness and prevent it from recurring.

To achieve that, you need a provider who isn’t just focused on treating the pain but is also willing to investigate WHY the pain occurred in the first place.

This is when you’ll receive a PERMANENT solution to your problems.

★★★★★ 5/5

Could not recommend these guys enough. I came to them due to lower back pain that limited my ability to work out and even do day to day things such as getting up from the couch without support. You can tell the heart these guys put into their work and care for their patients. I’ve seen a number of PTs over the years and none have been able to get me to the place I am now. They check in with you to see what kinds of things you want to get back to being able to do and work through it with you. You will not regret working with them, I truly enjoyed every session I went to! Ricky and Will are the best in the business!
