An MRI result isn't the whole story.

When people usually get in touch

• A scan report you were given without much explanation
• Back pain with symptoms into the leg
• Difficulty sitting, standing or walking for long
• Worry about whether movement or exercise is safe
• Advice from different sources that contradicts itself

What the assessment looks at

We take the imaging into account and then assess you: what you feel, where, when, and what your movement and strength currently allow.

• What the report says and what it does not tell us
• Symptom pattern, including any leg involvement
• Movements and positions that change your symptoms
• Current movement, strength and walking tolerance
• The activities you are avoiding at the moment

How rehabilitation usually works

Rehabilitation usually works towards restoring confident movement and building tolerance gradually, guided by how you respond rather than by the scan alone.
