Mid back pain, also known as thoracic spine pain, affects the region between the base of the neck and the bottom of the rib cage. It can be caused by poor posture, muscle strain, or underlying conditions such as herniated discs or arthritis. Physiotherapy is a highly effective treatment for managing mid back pain, focusing on pain relief, restoring mobility, and addressing the root cause of discomfort.
Physiotherapy is an effective way to manage mid back pain, addressing both symptoms and underlying causes. Our physiotherapists use manual therapy, targeted exercises, and postural training to relieve pain, improve flexibility, and restore strength. Additionally, we provide advice on ergonomics and activity modifications to prevent recurrence.

Recovery depends on the cause and severity of the pain, but most people experience significant improvements within 4–6 weeks with consistent physiotherapy.
Avoid activities that strain the thoracic spine, such as heavy lifting or prolonged poor posture, until guided by a physiotherapist.
Seek physiotherapy if pain persists for more than two weeks, interferes with daily activities, or worsens over time.
