Lower Back and Hip Pain

Lower Back and Hip Pain

Expert physical therapy in Lake Como & East Brunswick, NJ – treating complex low back pain, hip pain, and pelvic floor dysfunction

Expert Low Back and Hip Pain Treatment in Central New Jersey

Living with low back or hip pain can significantly impact every aspect of your daily life. At Mana Pelvic Health, we understand that these conditions often involve complex interactions between your core, pelvic floor, and surrounding structures. Our specialized physical therapists provide comprehensive treatment at our Lake Como (Monmouth County) and East Brunswick (Middlesex County) locations.

Understanding the Core-Pelvic Connection

Research shows that over 95% of low back pain involves dysfunction of the core and pelvic floor muscles. Traditional physical therapy often focuses solely on the back muscles, missing this crucial connection. Our unique approach addresses the entire core system, including the often-overlooked pelvic floor muscles, leading to more effective and lasting pain relief.

I had a great experience with Dr. Laura, she was super friendly, professional and helpful. She was able to cure my postpartum pelvic/lower back pain in just a few months. Would definitely recommend her for anyone struggling with postpartum pain!

I came to Mana PT after a microdiscectomy. The care that I received from Laura was nothing short of exceptional. As a 27 year old with chronic back pain, and 2 prior surgeries, I was terrified I would never experience normalcy again. I have spent years in PT for this issue, and finding Laura was a miracle. She helped me…

Comprehensive Treatment for Complex Pain Conditions

Sacroiliac Joint (SI) Dysfunction

SI joint pain can make simple activities like walking, sitting, or climbing stairs increasingly difficult. Our specialized treatment approach includes:

  • Advanced manual therapy techniques to improve joint mobility
  • Targeted exercise programs for stability
  • Postural correction strategies
  • Movement pattern retraining By addressing both joint mechanics and supporting muscle function, we help you achieve lasting relief.

Low Back Pain with Pelvic Floor Involvement

  • Specialized assessment of pelvic floor muscle function
  • Integration of core and pelvic floor coordination
  • Hands-on treatment techniques
