Low Back Pain Doesn't Resolve With Rest Alone

Sciatica and Radiating Pain Down the Leg

Work through sciatica and radiating leg pain with a structured plan. We assess what's driving the nerve irritation and build a program to reduce symptoms and rebuild the strength that protects the spine.

What People with Back Pain Say About Their Experience

Real stories from people who stopped managing and started fixing it

After several months of failing with my own gPT plan to work through a calf injury, I came here and couldn't be happier with the result. I'm back to running and feel well equipped going forward. Lars was fantastic as a PT, I won't look anywhere else for future needs.

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about low back pain PT at Resilient PT

What causes low back pain and why does it keep coming back?

Low back pain often recurs because the root cause hasn't been addressed — usually a combination of movement faults, strength gaps, and load patterns. We assess how your back moves and loads under your specific activities and build a plan that targets what's actually driving the pain, not just the current flare-up.

Do I need to stop exercising or training while in back PT?

In most cases, no. We modify load and movement patterns as needed, but the goal is to keep you active throughout the process. Most people continue training, lifting, or working while in PT. The plan is built around what you're doing — not around stopping everything until it feels better.

How long does low back pain physical therapy take?

It depends on the underlying cause, how long you've had the issue, and how your body responds. We set realistic expectations at your evaluation and progress based on how you're moving and loading, not just pain levels. Most people notice significant improvement within four to eight weeks of consistent work.

How is physical therapy for back pain different from just resting?

Rest can reduce symptoms short-term, but it doesn't address what's driving the pain. Physical therapy identifies the movement patterns, strength deficits, and load issues at the root of the problem and builds a progressive plan to fix them — so the relief actually lasts.

Do you accept insurance for low back pain physical therapy?

We offer cash-based packages and pay-as-you-go options. We also accept major insurance plans including Blue Cross Blue Shield, Medica, Health Partners, Aetna, United Healthcare, Medicare, and Medicaid. HSA and FSA are accepted. Please call us at (651) 528-6461 beforehand to verify your benefits.
