Are You Struggling With Sciatica Pain In Chislehurst or Dulwich?
How to End Back Pain & Stiffness Naturally Without Medication or Injections
Have you tried everything to achieve sciatica pain relief, but feel let down?
Don’t sacrifice the lifestyle you desire over problems that can be fixed. That’s why we made this just for you.
A Message From Chris Barber, Owner & Founder of Advanced Physiotherapy
- Are you worried about sciatica that doesn’t go away no matter how many exercises you do?
- Are you frustrated that you've seen multiple healthcare providers and some don't believe anything is wrong with you?
- Have you been to other clinics and feel let down?
- Are you still looking for a long-term solution so you can get active again?
If you answered “Yes” to any of these questions, you are in the right place!
You see, many people with in Chislehurst and Dulwich suffer unnecessarily with sciatica because they’re told…
- Just do some exercises on a piece a paper and you’ll get better (then months later they’re still suffering…)
- It’s “normal” with getting older to have sciatica
- If you take drugs you'll be alright.
- Surgery is the only option (and you can’t get in to have the surgery for a while)
The Truth Is...
- Just doing exercises on a sheet of paper often doesn’t change anything. You might get a small temporary relief, but then when you get active again you’ll still be suffering from back pain and stiffness (I bet you’ve already experienced it!)
- It’s not normal, to get sciatica as you get older!
- Drugs are addictive, dangerous, and can cause a lot of other problems with your body (and often don’t work very well!)
- Surgery is not the only option. It’s just the only option your surgeon can offer you.
“At Advanced Physiotherapy, We Specialize In Helping People Who Don’t Want To Live With Pain MOVE, FEEL, & PERFORM better by getting to the root of the problem when everything else has failed.”
It can be very confusing to decide exactly what you should do if you have sciatica. You’ve likely heard a lot of options such as…
- A family member tells you to just live with it.
- A colleague mentions trying a massage
- A friend suggests going to a pilates class to see if that helps.
- All while the doctor tells you nothing is wrong.
It’s overwhelming to try to make a decision with all these choices.. what will happen if you don’t make the right one?
Most people get stuck trying to make a decision about what to do next. They go days, weeks, months (even years!) without taking action.
When It Comes to Solving Something Serious Like Sciatica…
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 being dependent on addicting painkillers the rest of your life.
Getting the “least-invasive”, most natural treatment is VITAL to you stopping your sciatica AND keeping it from ever coming back.
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.
At Advanced Physiotherapy we’ve created a 3 step process to get rid of your pain AND make sure it doesn’t come back again.
Step #1 - We Want to Listen to Your Story
Our medical system is frustrating. You wait weeks, sometimes months, for an appointment, only to get to talk to the doctors for 10 minutes before they have to run to the next patient and you’re left sitting there wondering, “What just happened?”
Even most physiotherapy clinics operate this way. They’re not attentive, they’re fast-paced, and your therapist doesn’t have time to actually touch where you hurt.
This is why our first step is to listen to your story.
After working with lots of people with sciatica, we know that no two people are alike. Each person has a different body, a different history, and different types of pain.
That is why our first step is to have an open conversation and time for you to tell your story. That way we get a deep understanding of what’s going on not just with your body, but also how it’s impacting your life.
Step #2 - Find Out WHY The sciatica Started
Many people have a diagnosis, or medical term for what’s going on with their body. Maybe their doctor gave it to them, maybe test results showed the diagnosis, or maybe they found it online.
You could have been told that your only choice was to live with it, try rest, or just take drugs to cover the pain.
Sometimes, those things bring temporarily relief, but they’re not addressing what CAUSED the problem in the first place.
Every person’s cause of sciatica is different. No one has the exact same problem caused by the exact same thing as another person.
Our goal at Advanced Physiotherapy is to find that original cause of your pain, so not only does your sciatica go away, it STAYS AWAY!
We understand that you still might be skeptical or unsure if physiotherapy is right for you. That’s why we created a free taster session. (Yes! That means the first session is ON US!)
Our Discovery Visits are meant specifically for those people who are skeptical, unsure, or have even been let down in the past. During the Discovery Visit you’ll find out what’s wrong, how long it’s going to take to fix it, and give you peace of mind that your problem can be fixed naturally!
Step #3 - Get Rid Of The Pain & Keep It From Coming Back
This is when the big transformations occur. We develop a personalized plan that allows you to…
…Get back to exercising without fear of sciatica coming back
…Be able to be active again whether that’s walking, golfing, or going on holiday
…Get back to your pre-injury lifestyle you love
…Finally live pain-free!
Our best clients are those who are motivated and ready to win back life they want (Even if they feel stuck right now!)
Want to know more about our availability and costs before making any commitment to coming in?
You don’t have to sacrifice the life you want to live over problems that can be fixed.
Sincerely,
CHRIS BARBER
What Other People Just Like You Are Saying About Advanced Physiotherapy in Chislehurst & Dulwich...
Gerii, Tonbridge: Overcame back pain.
Isolde, Sevenoaks: Avoided back surgery for sciatica pain.
I injured my back lifting weights (under the guidance of a personal trainer!) and I was luckily referred to Chris by a friend after developing excruciating sciatica. Prior to seeing Chris I had seen another physiotherapist and also an osteopath for probably over a year for my issues with my ankles, knees and hips. During that time I had a clicking noise coming from my back which the osteopath I was seeing at that time told me was “normal”. Unfortunately I only found out from Chris, after sustaining my back injury, that this was already a warning sign that there was already a problem and most likely my issues with knees, and hips came from the problem with my spine and my underlying hypermobility which no-one had mentioned before. I had an MRI scan a few weeks after I started with Chris which confirmed a disc prolapse. Due to the severity of my back injury the specialists did not give me any hope that any conservative treatment could work and kept saying surgery was my only option which added to my anxiety at that time. I decided against the surgery and continued on with treatments from Chris.
Since I came to see Chris for my back injury my life has really changed. Initially I was unable to do much other than lie down and I even had to travel to the clinic lying in the back of a taxi! Now I can lead a normal life and I value the support (and the dry-needling!) from Chris in this difficult time. It gave me hope as I was seeing improvements and I felt also empowered as I learned how to best move or what exercises to do to strengthen my body. About a year after my injury I had another MRI scan done. The doctor as well as the NHS physiotherapist who saw both my MRI scans congratulated me for having managed to heal without surgery.
Anyone out there skeptical about physical therapy I would suggest to give it a try and to have patience. I do believe that injuries happen often over a longer period of time so it will take some time to change and learn healthier ways but only like this will you truly be able to stay healthy and prevent further injuries. Thank you Chris for helping me find my health again!
