Expert back pain treatment
near Montgomery
Neil Ingram BSc Ost has been treating back pain in Brussels since 2002. Evidence-based osteopathic care. €70 flat fee. Same-week appointments available.
Why does back pain happen?
Back pain is rarely caused by one single thing. In most cases it results from a combination of factors: prolonged sitting, muscle imbalances, joint stiffness, stress, and poor movement habits. The pain you feel in your lower back is often the end result of tension building up elsewhere — tight hip flexors, a stiff mid-back, or a weak core.
This is why taking painkillers or resting often provides only temporary relief. Addressing the underlying pattern is what prevents it from coming back.
Desk & office workers
Hours of seated work in the European Quarter create chronic tension in the lumbar spine. Osteopathy addresses the whole postural chain — not just where it hurts.
Sports-related back pain
Whether from running, cycling, CrossFit or tennis, back pain from sport is often related to movement mechanics. We identify and correct the root cause.
Pregnancy-related back pain
Gentle osteopathic treatment is safe during pregnancy and very effective for the lumbar, sacral and pelvic pain that often accompanies it.
Chronic & long-term back pain
Even if you’ve had back pain for years, osteopathy can significantly improve function and quality of life — often within just a few sessions.
What does treatment involve?
Your first appointment begins with a thorough case history and postural assessment. Neil will examine not just your spine, but how your hips, pelvis, and thoracic cage are moving — because back pain is a whole-body issue.
Treatment uses a range of osteopathic techniques: joint mobilisation, soft tissue work, stretching, and — where appropriate — high-velocity techniques (the "click"). Neil always explains what he’s doing and why, and will never perform a technique you’re uncomfortable with.
Most patients with acute back pain see significant improvement within 2–3 sessions. Chronic or complex cases may require more.
“Excellent results after just two treatments for my back problem. Great personality and good coach for avoiding future issues.”
