Back pain is one of the most common reasons patients visit our Finchley Road clinic, and postural and desk ergonomics strain is a recurring theme among the London professionals we treat. Long periods of sitting, combined with poor desk setup, place sustained load through the spine and surrounding muscles.

Why Desk Posture Matters

At SpineAlign, our Postural & Desk Ergonomics service focuses on correction of sedentary desk posture strains for London professionals. Sitting for extended periods without movement or postural variation can contribute to the back pain and neck pain we regularly assess and treat in clinic.

How We Assess and Treat It

Every patient starts with a thorough assessment: we listen to your history and assess your movement to understand what's really driving the pain, followed by a hands-on physical examination of the affected area and how it connects to the rest of your body. Wherever appropriate, hands-on treatment begins in your very first session.

For back pain linked to desk posture, treatment may draw on our Spinal Mobilization & Manipulation techniques — evidence-based hands-on techniques used to help reduce pain and improve spinal mobility — alongside Manual Therapy for hands-on joint mobilisation and soft-tissue work.

What You Can Expect

• A 30-minute Initial Physiotherapy Consultation (£55) to assess your condition and functional needs
• A personalised treatment and rehabilitation plan
• Practical, ergonomic setup advice as part of your long-term recovery plan
