Back Pain

Struggling with Back Pain?

Do you experience persistent or recurring back pain that disrupts your daily life?
Has back pain made it difficult to sit, stand, or move comfortably?
Are you frustrated with temporary fixes that don’t provide lasting relief?
Do you want a natural and effective solution to regain mobility and strength?

If you answered yes, you’re not alone. At RX Physical Therapy in Wayne, NJ, Charles Ferruzza, PT, DPT, is here to help you overcome back pain and return to an active, pain-free life.

Why Back Pain Can Be So Limiting

Back pain can affect every aspect of your life, making work, exercise, and even simple daily activities feel like a challenge. When left untreated, it can worsen over time, leading to more severe issues.

But you don’t have to live with chronic back pain. There are effective solutions available.

Common Approaches to Back Pain That May Not Work

Many people try these methods, but they often don’t provide long-term relief:

Resting Too Much: While short-term rest may help, prolonged inactivity can weaken muscles and worsen pain.
Applying Ice or Heat: This may offer temporary relief but won’t address the root cause.
Relying on Pain Medication: Medications may mask symptoms but won’t solve the underlying problem.
Ignoring the Pain: Hoping it will go away on its own can lead to chronic pain and dysfunction.

If you’ve tried these and are still struggling, it’s time for a different approach.

Why Rest Alone Won’t Solve Back Pain

Resting without addressing muscle imbalances, poor posture, or mobility restrictions won’t provide long-term relief. You need a targeted treatment plan designed to address the root cause of your pain.

What People Say About RX Physical Therapy

Adult Athlete -Former Patient “Before finding Charles I was in a state of constant pain. I had been dealing with hip pain for a little over a year and it was really taking a toll. It really debilitated my fitness, sleep, motivation, and confidence. I was in and out of the doctor’s office…..my pcp, ortho doc who actually recommended surgery or reduce physical activity, and several physical therapists, but none could provide relief. When I found Charles, I was at my lowest, based on previous experiences but also hopeful given a recommendation from a close friend who had great results. My biggest goal of course, pain relief, but running and squatting as well. Within weeks of my first visit, I had finally found relief! Charles created a great trust by demonstrating not only his ability to diagnose my pain but also address issues surrounding what was creating my symptoms. Now I’m running, squatting and pain free while exceeding all my physical goals that I didn’t think I’d ever be able to achieve.”

Long Snapper- Chicago Bears “Throughout my 8 year NFL career I have had multiple injuries and as a result I have been treated by many physical therapists. Charles is by far one of the best I’ve ever worked with. His overall attention to detail and knowledge of the body is impressive. He helped me recover from a torn ACL in a safe and effective manner. As a patient it was important to me that my therapist had my best interests in mind and that’s exactly what Charles did. He knows when and how to work a client hard but more importantly, he knew when to pull back, yet still progress and use effective treatments. I would highly recommend using Charles for any physical therapy needs.”
