Low Back Pain Physical Therapy in Austin, TX
Stop Bracing for the Next Flare-Up
People come to us when low back pain keeps getting in the way of training — the flare-ups that bench you for a week, the tightness that returns every time you push intensity. We find the root cause, build a plan that actually fits your goals, and work with you one-on-one every session.
Why Low Back Pain Keeps Coming Back
You Keep Starting Over
A flare-up hits, you rest for a week, you feel better, you push again — and it comes back. The cycle keeps repeating because the root cause was never addressed.
Rest and Heat Aren't Fixing It
You've tried rest, stretching, a foam roller, maybe a chiropractor visit. It calms down for a bit. Then you load it again and you're right back where you started.
You're Modifying Around It Now
You've started avoiding deadlifts, cutting runs short, skipping loaded carries. The workarounds are adding up and your training is shrinking around the pain.
Why Active Adults Choose Your PT Doc
You're not getting a McKenzie protocol printout or a list of bird-dogs to do at home. You're working one-on-one with a clinician who looks at how you actually move under load — and builds a plan around what's driving your pain, not just where it shows up.
What Brings People In
We work with active adults dealing with low back pain that flares with lifting, running, or long hours at a desk. Whether it's been going on for weeks or years, we'll figure out what's driving it and build a plan to address it at the source.
Low back pain that flares when lifting heavy or increasing run volume
Tightness or stiffness first thing in the morning that limits your training window
Pain or aching after long periods of sitting at a desk or driving
Radiating pain, numbness, or tingling into the glutes or legs with certain positions
Low back pain that keeps returning after a week or two of rest
Fear of loading the back after a previous injury or imaging findings
Back pain that has started shaping what you train and how hard you push

Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about low back pain PT at Your PT Doc in Austin
No imaging needed to get started. Movement assessment often tells us more about what's driving your back pain than an MRI report does. If imaging would genuinely help guide your plan, we'll let you know — but we won't wait on it to start making progress.
Chronic low back pain responds well to load-based rehab when it targets the right things. Long-standing pain usually means the root cause was never properly addressed — not that the back is beyond fixing. We'll assess from scratch and build a plan based on how your body actually moves now.
Not unless continuing would clearly make things worse. The goal is to keep you training in some form while we address the underlying issue — modifying what needs to change and building tolerance to what's setting you off. Pulling you out of training entirely is rarely the right answer.
Yes. You'll work one-on-one with a clinician for the full session — no techs, no waiting room exercises, no generic printout. We look at how your body moves under load and build a progression specific to your training and what's driving your back pain, not a protocol designed for the average patient.
We're cash-based — no insurance required. We can provide a superbill for possible reimbursement through your out-of-network benefits. Most patients find that one-on-one, undivided attention for the full session is worth it compared to insurance-driven structures where you're one of five patients being seen at once.
