Chronic Back Pain: Causes & Non-Surgical Treatment
Back pain is one of the most common reasons people miss work. In Dubai, long hours sitting at desks and lack of movement contribute to the rise in spinal issues.
Common Causes
- Disc Herniation: The cushion between vertebrae slips out, pressing on nerves.
- Muscle Strain: Heavy lifting or sudden movement.
- Sciatica: Pain radiating down the leg due to nerve compression.
- Poor Posture: "Tech neck" and slouching.
Diagnosis First

Non-Surgical Solutions
We prioritize conservative care: physiotherapy, targeted injections, and lifestyle modification to get you pain-free without surgery.
FAQ
