Spine, Posture, and Back Pain Physical Therapy Services Across Contra Costa County, CA Evidence-Based Care for Chronic Back Pain and Postural Issues

Back pain is one of the most common musculoskeletal conditions affecting adults and adolescents alike. It can stem from daily wear and tear, long hours of sitting or standing, lifting incorrectly, poor posture, or even stress.

Without proper treatment, these issues can progress into more serious conditions that limit your ability to move, work, and enjoy everyday life.

At Lafayette Physical Therapy, we specialize in the diagnosis and treatment of spine-related pain and posture dysfunction. Our goal is not just to relieve symptoms temporarily but to address the underlying causes and help our patients make long-term improvements. We do this by offering one-on-one physical therapy sessions tailored to each individual's body, habits, and lifestyle.

What Makes Your Back Flare Up in the Fall

As fall routines begin, many people experience a noticeable uptick in back and neck pain. It's not just a coincidence. September often brings a shift toward more time sitting—at desks, in cars, or helping kids with schoolwork—which increases pressure on the spine and weakens core support.

Add in travel, longer commutes, heavy backpacks, or even yardwork as temperatures cool, and your body starts to feel the strain.

This time of year also triggers changes in posture, activity levels, and stress—three major contributors to spine-related discomfort. Without proper movement, support, and recovery, that tightness or soreness can easily become something more chronic.

Personalized Treatment Plans That Actually Work

At Lafayette Physical Therapy, we start with a thorough one-on-one evaluation to understand the root cause of your back pain—not just where it hurts, but why it’s happening in the first place.

Our licensed physical therapists assess your posture, range of motion, movement patterns, and any muscular imbalances that may be contributing to your symptoms. We take the time to learn about your daily habits, work environment, activity level, and goals so we can design a treatment plan that actually fits your life.

Once we’ve identified the contributing factors, we create a customized program that may include manual therapy to release tension, targeted exercises to build strength and stability, and posture training to correct how you sit, stand, and move throughout the day.

Every recommendation is purposeful, backed by clinical research, and tailored to help you reduce pain, improve function, and prevent the issue from coming back.

Our goal isn’t just to treat your pain—it’s to equip you with the knowledge, strategies, and physical tools to manage it on your own. You’ll leave each session with more mobility, less discomfort, and a long-term plan for keeping your spine and posture healthy.

We also provide guidance on home exercises, ergonomic adjustments, and behavior changes that support lasting relief—so this doesn’t become your “every fall” problem. It becomes something you finally have control over.
