Physical therapy and exercise. Physical therapy is the cornerstone of back pain treatment. A physical therapist can apply a variety of treatments, such as heat, ultrasound, electrical stimulation and muscle-release techniques, to your back muscles and soft tissues to reduce pain.
In light of the human and economic costs of chronic pain, as well as evidence that many people who have chronic pain turn to complementary health approaches for relief, NCCIH places a high priority on pain-related research. Massage may be helpful for chronic low-back pain. 2  There is some evidence that progressive relaxation may help relieve low-back pain, but studies on this topic have not been of the highest quality. 3  Spinal manipulation can provide relief from low-back pain and appears to work at least as well as other treatments.
