Feel Your Best in Louisville’s Seasons—Back Pain Therapy That Fits Your Life

Whether you’re enjoying a walk through Cherokee Park in spring, keeping up with your kids at a St. Matthews soccer game, or braving an icy driveway in winter, life in Louisville, KY keeps you moving. But when back pain slows you down, even the simplest joys—like gardening in the summer or cheering on the Cards—can feel out of reach. At Athletico Physical Therapy – Louisville (St. Matthews), we understand how lower back pain or upper back pain can affect your daily routine, especially when our city’s changing seasons invite you to be active. Our Back Pain Therapy is designed to help you reclaim your comfort and confidence, so you can get back to the Louisville lifestyle you love.

Understanding Back Pain in Louisville: Why It Happens and How We Help

Back pain is one of the most common reasons people in our community seek physical therapy. Whether you’re experiencing a sudden twinge after raking autumn leaves, ongoing discomfort from sitting at your office in downtown Louisville, or soreness after a weekend of hiking at Jefferson Memorial Forest, you’re not alone.

Our therapists specialize in physical therapy for lower back pain and upper back pain, tailoring every treatment to your unique needs and lifestyle. We know that the best lower back exercises look different for a marathon runner than for someone who enjoys gentle strolls along the Ohio River. No matter your starting point, our goal is to help you move more freely, sleep better, and enjoy your favorite activities without that nagging ache.
