What is Lower Back Pain?
Lower back pain is one of the most common musculoskeletal issues we see today, affecting people of virtually all ages and activity levels. Pain in the lower back may present as a sharp, stabbing sensation or a persistent dull ache and can range in severity from mild discomfort to debilitating pain. At Tri Physical Therapy in Phoenix, AZ, we recognize that lower back pain is not just a symptom, but a signal that something in the body is out of balance. The causes of lower back pain are wide-ranging and often complex and/or multifactorial in nature. Common triggers of low back pain include poor posture, repetitive strain, muscle imbalances, or injuries from sports, accidents, or heavy lifting. Degenerative conditions such as arthritis or disc problems can also contribute, as can lifestyle factors like prolonged sitting or lack of core strength. Our goals with lower back pain treatment are both to relieve symptoms and to address the root cause so you can return to living a full and active life with comfort once again.

At Tri Physical Therapy, we believe that effective lower back pain treatment must be personalized, proactive, and focused on the whole person, not just the symptom.

We offer a range of innovative therapies to relieve lower back pain and restore mobility, including:

Tri Physical Therapy Reviews
I’ve been using Tri-Physical Therapy as part of my ongoing care and the staff has been wonderful to work with. They listen to any concerns I may have and make adjustments as necessary. My treatments has been a very collaborative approach.
I have been a PT patient here as well as I use their medical masseuse services. This is a top notch PT experience if you are in need of help. I love that they incorporate Pilates into their regiment (if you need it)I regularly have issues with tight muscles, knots in my shoulders etc so having access to a true medical masseuse that hones in on your problem areas is incredibly helpful. I don't need a fancy relaxation room etc- I just want someone who knows what they are doing to get me straightened out and Anna did a great job. $95 for a 60 minute service.
I love coming to Tri Physical! Until about 2 months ago I didn’t realize there was such a thing as medical massage that the public could access & so when I was able to get in & see Anna - first of all, holy smokes I feel so good! But also she’s so nice, very knowledgeable and a really great therapist all the way around!
I’ve been coming here for years and the office is full of amazing people! Great physical therapist and wonderful massage therapist. I wouldn’t go any where else.
The staff is extremely friendly and knowledgeable. Making the first appointment was super easy by using their online chat system. The medical massages definitely helped increase my range of motion and reduce my pain. The massage therapist used scrapping and cupping, which were extremely beneficial. Also, each massage therapist listened to my concerns, provided necessary treatment, insight into what could be causing my pain, and shared at home remedies.
