🛑 Back Pain Myth Busted! 🛑

“Rest is the best cure for back pain.” ❌

The truth? While it’s tempting to stay in bed, in most cases, gentle movement and guided exercises are often the quickest path to recovery. At MTM Physiotherapy Duncraig, we help you move safely, strengthen key muscles, and reduce pain — without becoming a couch potato.

💡 Tip: Try light walking or simple stretches if you’re experiencing mild back discomfort. Avoid prolonged bed rest unless advised. But remember: it’s always best to seek a physiotherapy assessment first to ensure your exercises are safe for you.
