Back pain is the number one reason people miss work in the United States. If you’re living with persistent neck or back pain in Tampa, you don’t have to wait for a surgeon’s referral or settle for pain medication as a long-term solution. Physical therapy is one of the most effective, evidence-based treatments for spine conditions — and Nucleus Physical Therapy is here to help.
Common Spine Conditions We Treat
Our Tampa physical therapy clinic specializes in treating herniated and bulging discs, sciatica and lumbar radiculopathy, cervical neck pain and stiffness, postural pain from desk work, spinal stenosis, and post-surgical spine rehabilitation. Whether your pain came on suddenly or has been building for years, there is a clear path forward.
Why Physical Therapy First?
Research consistently shows that manual therapy and targeted exercise therapy outperform medication and surgery for the majority of spine conditions. Physical therapy addresses the root cause of your pain — not just the symptoms. At Nucleus PT, we follow a three-step process: identify the root cause, reduce your pain from day one, and rebuild your strength so you can stay pain-free long term.
What Spine Care Looks Like at Nucleus PT
Your care plan may include hands-on manual therapy to restore joint mobility, dry needling to release deep muscle tension, postural correction and movement retraining, and a personalized exercise prescription to strengthen the muscles supporting your spine. Every session is one-on-one, meaning Dr. Ansari’s full attention is on you for the entire visit.
Serving Tampa and Surrounding Areas
We see patients from across the Tampa Bay area including Citrus Park, Westchase, and Greater Carrollwood. No referral is required. If spine pain is limiting your life, the best thing you can do is start moving in the right direction.
