Neck, Back & Spinal problems

ABOUT THE TREATMENT
ABOUT THE TREATMENT

It is really striking that statistically 80-90% of the adult population worldwide will develop back or neck pain at some point in their lives. Partly could be our lifestyle at fault, but there are also other factors that can play a role in their development such as hereditary, environmental, occupational, ergonomics and many more.

Most of the neck and back problems could be dealt with some rest, application of heat or cold and the use of off the counter medication. In the event that your pain is limiting you or cannot be controlled with common advice you will benefit by seeing a physiotherapist. On your initial assessment in Physiomove and following history and manual testing we will give you a diagnosis and discuss with you what we feel is the best plan of action.

Sometimes an MRI scan could be useful but we like to say that ''we treat people and not images''. On many occasions the back or neck pain you are experiencing could be the result of biomechanical variations, postural problems or muscular weakness and imbalances you have brought on in the areas of pain. The outcome of this increased local stress can be inflamed muscles, tender ligaments or disc prolapses. Our bodies though have a great inherent power to heal themselves and most of the times they can heal with no further interventions. We facilitate that healing response with manual therapy techniques, acupuncture and different types of exercises.

On the occasion that you fall into that category that you need to have an operation for your spinal problem our physiotherapy experts will guide you through your rehabilitation. This will ensure that you become pain free and you achieve better muscle strength and control in the area at a much shorter timescale.

    I've been having lower back and knee pain for some time until I was recommended to see Nikos Stamos by a family member. It has been three months since then and I cannot thank Nikos and team enough for helping me treat my problems. Nikos is hard on you but always has the best in mind for his patients. I truly and wholeheartedly recommend Nikos and team to anyone who is in need of physiotherapy.

    I was referred to Physiomove at London Medical with a persistent headache problem that I have had for couple of months. Nikos diagnosed the issue and helped me to understand the causes of it and what I could do to alleviate the pain. I have a significant scoliosis and the pain was caused by this. I was also shown exercises which fit perfectly into my daily routine and which were quick and targeted the problem exactly. A professional, excellent and friendly service that I highly recommend.

    I cannot recommned Physiomove at London Medical highly enough. I went following a recommendation to visit Nikos Stamos for a very sore lower back, we had a few sessions working on exercises, stretches and posture. After 2 weeks I was feeling so much better. Nikos has given me a plan moving forward to safeguard my back moving forward to get back to fitness and living without pain and to see him more infrequently which is highly appreciated; so many healthcare professionals just want you to keep going back and spending money but Nikos is really all about getting you fixed so you can get back to your life. The experience and manner with which all the staff showed was second to none, thank you all so much!

    ‘Nikos Stamos is an excellent physiotherapist. My problems were pinpointed efficiently and the exercises Nikos has given me have helped enormously. I have schuermann’s and was suffering from persistent back pain I am happy to say after two sessions and by continuing the exercises the pain is pretty much gone now. ‘

    Have worked with Nikos for 9 months post shoulder surgery. He is incredibly knowledgeable about both surgical and rehabilitation processes. He has a friendly demeanor, but will also push you to get results, which expedites the process to becoming pain free / re-gaining strength. He has a wealth of knowledge across a wide variety of subject areas - also helped a family member with torn knee ligaments with similar success.
