A Truly Holistic Vision

A message from the founder, Hazel Amper

 

“As I've progressed through my 30 years of working with injured bodies, I've been able to bring together the perfect solution to pain and injury. Depending on the Physiotherapy diagnosis (what is truly wrong with your system) everyone needs different things and different treatments, rehab options at different times of their healing and recovery process. Then you achieve real and fast success. Careful diagnosis and a bespoke and targeted plan of action. So the Back Lab was founded to bring together Physiotherapy, rehabilitation, Pilates, and massage — all delivered through one intelligent, integrated system.

Every service is guided by the same principles:

     Remove the barriers of pain and dysfunction 

  • Provide cutting edge assessments and treatments

  • Treat the cause, not just the symptom

  • Build progressive and safe strength

  • Create change through knowledge

  • Support the whole person — physical, mental, and emotional

A Truly Holistic Approach

We treat your symptoms and  we rebuild strength, alignment and movement from the inside out.

Our integrated care combines:
💪 Physiotherapy
🏋️ Rehab & Strength Training
🧘 Bodywork & Mobility
💆 Therapeutic Massage

You’ll work with a team of highly skilled physiotherapists, rehab specialists, and massage therapists, each dedicated to helping you move better, feel stronger, and live pain-free.

 

Our mission is simple:

"To help every patient find their weakest links and use our expertise of anatomy, dysfunction and cutting edge exercise science to re-build their body to re-discover how strong and capable their body can be. And resilient for a healthy future”

 

We’re Specialists in All Things Spine

From hypermobility to spinal degeneration, sciatica, and disc issues — whether bulging, compressed, or herniated — we’ve seen it all, and we know how to help.

We have deep expertise in managing complex conditions like:

  • Disc injuries (bulging, herniated, compressed)

  • Sciatica and nerve entrapment

  • Spinal degeneration

  • Spinal stenosis

  • Hypermobility and instability

  • Postural and mechanical back pain

  • Scoliosis and kyphosis curvatures

Back Pain — Pain You Don’t Have to Live With

 

What Sets Us Apart

At The Back Clinic, we don’t just treat your pain — we uncover why it’s there and fix it for good. Our all-round program targets pain fast while helping you understand your body’s weak links — and how to rebuild strength and stability for the long term.

 

Our Signature Approach

We combine cutting-edge assessments, hands-on techniques, and targeted rehab to get you out of pain — and keep you there.

✅ Head-to-Toe Assessment
Pinpoint the true source of your pain with specialised testing that reveals hidden weaknesses.

✅ Posture Course
Master your body mechanics with in-depth instruction so you can self-correct and move pain-free.

✅ 1:1 Reformer Rehab
Build a stronger, more resilient spine with personalised Pilates-based strength training.

✅ Functional Training 

Learn how to take your body out into the real world as you progress to more advanced training concepts to increase motor skills and power

✅ Spinal Release Work
Feel relief fast with hands-on techniques that free up stuck joints, tight muscles, and restricted nerves.

✅ Spinal Acupuncture
Soothe spasm, calm nerves, and accelerate healing from the inside out.

 

How We Heal

Our holistic system tackles both the symptom and the source:

1.    Relieve Pain Fast — Reduce inflammation, spasm, joint stiffness, and nerve entrapment using hands-on therapy, laser, and acupuncture.

2.    Address the ‘Spread Effect’ — Release tension in surrounding areas to restore mobility and break the pain cycle.

3.    Fix the Root Cause — Correct faulty movement patterns, strengthen weak muscles, and balance your system to stop pain returning.

 

Two Diagnoses — One Lasting Solution

Most doctors stop at the what (e.g. a bulging disc). The treatment options only provide invasive treatment options ie surgery.
We go further — we find the why: the imbalances and weaknesses that overloaded your spine in the first place.

Fixing this deeper cause doesn’t just relieve pain — it sets you on a path to a healthy, stable spine(and a stronger, more balanced body).

That’s where our Back Pain Boot comes in — your personalised journey from pain to power.

Our multi-concept programme to get you out of the

cycle of pain 

+

+

+

We designed Back Boot Camp for those who are ready to break free from the cycle of pain, frustration, and recurring injury.

 

Too often, patients are stuck in a dysfunction loop — where the body becomes wired to move and respond in a faulty way. Traditional approaches like home exercises or occasional hands-on treatments may bring short-term relief, but they rarely deliver lasting change.

 

Our intensive programme is different. Grounded in physiotherapy science and delivered with expert precision, Back Boot Camp rewires how your body moves, builds strength where it’s needed most, and restores proper alignment and control.

 

This is not a quick fix — it’s a complete reset for your spine, posture, and movement. Expect a transformational journey that replaces chronic pain with confident, pain-free performance.
