How can I manage my chronic back pain effectively?

Managing chronic back pain often involves a combination of physical therapy, medication, and lifestyle changes. Have you tried any specific treatments?

I've been doing some stretches, but they don't seem to help much.

Stretching is great, but it might be beneficial to consult a physical therapist for personalized exercises. Have you considered that?

No, I haven't. What should I expect from physical therapy?

In physical therapy, you'll receive tailored exercises and techniques to strengthen your back and improve flexibility. It can be very effective!

That sounds promising! How often should I go to physical therapy?

Typically, physical therapy sessions are recommended 1-3 times a week, depending on your condition. Your therapist will guide you on the best schedule.
