Back Pain
Dr. Brett Dick, PT, DPT
Owner of Limitless Performance Physical Therapy
Are You an Athlete or an Active Adult Who Is Hampered by Back Pain?
A Personal Message From Dr. Brett Dick
- Do you have back pain and stiffness that won't go away no matter how much you rest?
- Are you angry because pain pills, massages, or chiropractic treatment haven't helped and your pain appears to be worsening?
- Are you hesitant to resume jogging or exercising because you're afraid your pain will worsen?
- Are you someone who values their health and is looking for a long-term solution to leading a more active lifestyle without pain?
You’ve come to the right place if you responded “Yes” to any of these questions!
It’s common to believe that back discomfort is insignificant and will go away on its own. It’s also typical to blame it on “sleeping awkwardly” or that it’s something “everyone” experiences at some point in their lives.
If this is happening to you, you are not alone; we hear stories like this all the time.
We see a lot of back discomfort among runners and athletes in our clinic.
Many of Our Back Pain Patients Are Told Before Coming to Limitless Performance Physical Therapy…
- Just "rest" or take a break from exercise and it will go away (then months later they will still be suffering...).
- It's "normal" as you get older, and you just have to accept it.
- Simply taking a few medications will allow you to move and exercise for the rest of your life.
- The only options are surgery and injections.
The Reality of Back Pain in Runners and Athletes Is…
- Resting it makes no difference. You might receive some short relief, but when you get back to doing things, you'll still have back pain and stiffness (I'm sure you've experienced it!).
- It is not natural to experience back pain and stiffness as you age!
- Pain relievers are addictive, hazardous, and can cause a variety of other health issues.
- Injections and surgery are not the only alternatives. It's the only option your surgeon has available to you.

With so many alternatives available, it might be difficult to know what to do if you have a back issue.
- Your acquaintance informed you about a stretching practice that works for them but isn't working for you.
- Going to another healthcare expert, or even another physical therapist, but nothing they said or did help.`
- Following "experts" on YouTube who encourage completing a particular exercise, all they did was aggravate the pain.
- Attempting a yoga or pilates class, but being slowed down by your pain the entire time and leaving feeling worse.
All the meantime the doctor advises you to rest and take some medicines.
When It Comes to Dealing With Serious Issues Like Back Pain and Stiffness…
You must choose the right provider for your health.
If you don’t, you could end up getting dangerous surgery (when it was unnecessary) or become dependent on addicting painkillers for the rest of your life. Getting the “least-invasive”, most natural treatment is VITAL to you stopping your back pain and stiffness and keeping it from ever returning.
To do that, you have to not just treat the pain but have a provider who is willing to figure out WHY the pain happened in the first place.
That’s when you’ll get a PERMANENT solution to your problems.
