You can book an appointment straight away via our online booking system or by telephone. We can arrange same-day appointments for urgent cases. Under normal circumstances, we can offer appointments within 1–3 days.

The recovery period varies depending on the type and severity of your condition, as well as your response to treatment. Whilst acute lower back and neck pain usually resolves within 4–8 weeks, a herniated disc may take 8–16 weeks, and chronic conditions and postural problems may require a 12–24-week rehabilitation programme. Every patient is different, and your doctor will provide you with an estimated timeframe.

The frequency of treatment varies depending on your condition. During the acute phase, 3–5 sessions per week are recommended; during the subacute phase, 2–3 sessions per week; and during the chronic phase, 1–2 sessions per week. As treatment progresses, the number of sessions is reduced and home exercises take centre stage.

The vast majority of spinal problems (80–90%) resolve with conservative treatment. Surgery is only considered in severe cases, where there are progressive neurological symptoms, or in cases where conservative treatment has been ineffective. Our priority is always conservative treatment methods.

You certainly can. Our clinical Pilates programmes are suitable for all levels. Our certified instructors will start you at the appropriate level and help you progress gradually. We recommend individual sessions at the beginning; once you have learnt the correct technique, you can move on to group sessions.

Most treatment methods are pain-free or cause minimal discomfort. During manual therapy in physiotherapy sessions, you may feel slight pressure, but your therapist will apply a level of pressure that is comfortable for you. Mild muscle fatigue during exercises is normal. No procedures that increase pain are performed.

Regular exercise, good posture habits and a healthy lifestyle significantly reduce the risk of recurrence. Following the home exercise programme provided to you, incorporating posture training into your daily routine and attending regular check-ups are crucial for maintaining your spinal health. At SpineWell, we aim for long-term health through our approach, which focuses not only on treatment but also on prevention.
