Back Pain

You’ve come here looking for information, answers, and solutions to your back pain or sciatica problem.

I have great news for you! Your back pain or sciatica CAN and WILL get better!
 
But ONLY if you choose to do something about it (you can start by downloading our free back pain ebook on this page).
 
Your back pain or sciatica won’t just go away on its own. Resting will not solve the problem. Taking pain medications won’t solve your problem either.

Have you been told that before? 

I have more good news for you.
 
As a physical therapist, I have the extensive specialty training that is required to help YOU get out of pain, moving normally, and enjoying life again!
 
But Chris, how can you help me? 

I’m glad you asked.
​
These are the 3 steps you can take today to get out of pain:  
  1. First, you need to contact me (or I can’t help you). You can download my back pain ebook on this page, fill out a request form, or you can simply call or text me at 407-222-5038
  2. Then, you and I will talk, either on the phone or on a video call, and you can tell me all about your back pain or sciatica, and ask me any questions you have about cause, self-treatment options, how I can help, etc.
  3. Once you decide that physical therapy with us is the best option for you, we will schedule the evaluation at your home or office and get started! 

"Ok, Chris. All of that sounds fine, but I’ve been to physical therapy before, and all they did was put me on some machines and give me hot packs. And the PT was so busy seeing two other patients, that I didn’t get the attention or quality of care I was hoping for."

That’s exactly why I started my mobile practice!

You deserve ALL of my attention during our treatment sessions. And that means that you get the absolute best treatments I have to offer, and you get back to enjoying your life faster with less disruption to your busy schedule (no missing work or driving to a clinic 3 times a week).

Chris, you talk a good game, but what can you DO for me?
 
Here’s how back pain and sciatica work:
 
When you have an injury to your back, your muscles in that area tighten up, or spasm, to protect your back from further injury. The tight and spasming muscles usually include: piriformis, iliopsoas, erector spine, and quadratus lumborum.
 
Other muscles will also “turn off” when you have a back injury. Those include: transverse abdominis, multifidus, gluteus medius.
 
With some muscles being too tight, and some muscles “turned off”, there’s a muscle imbalance that completely changes everything about how your back moves, and that’s where your pain is coming from.
 
Think about it like a game of Tug of War inside your back. If one side is pulling harder than the other, you end up in the mud.
 
So, the only way to fix the problem is to fix the CAUSE of your pain.
Note: This Free Discovery Visit is something that we offer to people who are very nervous or skeptical about Physical Therapy - unsure of its benefits or if it is right for them. If that sounds like you, then please start with a free discovery visit so that we can work with you to find out what is wrong and what can be done - without any financial risk on your part.
Here Are the 4 Things That We Do in Treatment to FIX your Back Pain or Sciatica:
  1. First, we thoroughly evaluate the exact origin and cause of your pain using evidence-based hands-on testing techniques. We will review with you what we found, and let you know how many sessions and how many weeks we anticipate before you’re feeling great again.
  2. Then, we will get to work on loosening those tight and spasming muscles with hands-on techniques (similar to massage). Think about your tight muscles like a wrinkled shirt at the bottom of the laundry pile: the shirt can’t be smoothed out by just hanging it up (or resting your back); it has to be ironed to get rid of the wrinkles. Same with the muscles in your back: they have to be “ironed” by hands-on treatments provided by a physical therapist
  3. Next, we will work on “turning on” the muscles that “turned off” in response to your injury with a progressive series of very specific exercises tailored to you (much more effective than random exercises on YouTube).
  4. Finally, we will retrain your back to be strong, stable, and supple with the activities you want to do again to enjoy life
 
Along the way, we’ll provide you with an individualized self-treatment program so that you can keep making progress between sessions, and maintain that progress after your sessions with us are complete.

Traci J, 55, Oviedo, FL

"Dr. Chris Miller at Full Swing Physical Therapy and Wellness the best physical therapist that I have ever worked with.  

After almost 3 years following a total knee replacement surgery, I was still having severe pain and stiffness in my left knee.  I was taking strong pain medication to reduce the pain at night in order to sleep.  

My initial goal in working with Dr. Chris was to only play golf again. I was lacking the range of motion and confidence to get back on the course.

Dr. Miller provided very effective and focused therapy, including manual treatments and tailored exercises to strengthen the muscles around my knee. His caring and encouraging demeanor ensured that all of my concerns and issues were addressed. 

Due to Dr. Miller's personal attention and positive reinforcement, I am now able to kneel, jog and play golf again. 

I feel better than I have in several years!

I highly recommend Dr. Miller to anyone who would like to improve his or her physical condition, especially after surgery. His personal touch and skilled knowledge are unsurpassed.  ​I am so happy to have found Dr. Miller and he has changed my life!​"
