Back pain has a way of taking over everything—your workouts, your sleep, your confidence. At Revenant Physical Therapy, we see the toll it takes. But more importantly, we help you approach it differently.
You don’t need more short-term relief.
You need a system that restores trust in your body—and builds lasting capacity.
If you’ve dealt with back pain, you’ve probably been told to rest, stretch, or avoid movement altogether. Maybe you’ve even been on a rotation of passive treatments like massage or dry needling.
Here’s what we see over and over again:
Most conventional care focuses on the site of pain—whether it’s your low back, neck, or mid-spine. But back pain is rarely isolated.
Breathing, posture, core control, even how your ribcage moves—all of it plays a role. That’s why we assess your whole system, not just the area that hurts.
Learn why healing is about adaptation—not rest.
Short-term rest can help calm things down, but prolonged inactivity often leads to more stiffness, less strength, and higher sensitivity.
Passive treatments may ease symptoms, but if they’re the only thing in your plan, you're stuck chasing relief without restoring resilience.
Here’s why quick fixes don’t work for long-term relief.
You may have heard phrases like “your spine is out of alignment” or warnings to avoid bending or lifting. Those messages create fear.
The result? More guarding. More hesitation. And a nervous system that becomes more sensitive over time—not less.
When pain creates fear, and fear limits movement, your body starts to decondition.
What started as back pain becomes a full-system shutdown—physically and psychologically.
That’s where we come in.
At Revenant PT, we see your back pain differently—through the lens of modern pain science and whole-body movement.
It’s not fragile. It’s not “out.” It’s reacting to the inputs you’ve been giving it—load, posture, stress, inactivity. The good news? We can change the input.
Especially in chronic cases, pain is often your nervous system reacting to perceived threat—not actual injury. When we shift that perception through movement and education, pain starts to let go.
It’s not just about managing pain. It’s about restoring your ability to move, lift, bend, and live without fear.
No guesswork. No cookie-cutter protocols. Your recovery starts with a full-body, movement-focused assessment that helps us understand:
How you breathe → Core stability starts here
How your ribcage + pelvis move → Critical for spinal alignment
How you handle load & rotation → We test real-world movement
How your nervous system responds → Guarding, sensitivity, fear patterns
Pain isn’t just physical—it’s perceptual. We assess both.

Everything we do is built around rebuilding trust in your system:
Strength-based progressions to restore durability
Breathwork + coordination drills to stabilize from the inside out
Tailored movement re-education to help you feel confident moving again
This isn’t just about feeling better—it’s about moving better, for life.
We adjust your plan based on how you respond, and we teach you the why behind every step. You leave stronger, not dependent.
Your back isn’t broken.
It’s responding to inputs. Let’s help it adapt—with better ones.
