Facet Joint Syndrome Physiotherapy in Karachi | Home Rehabilitation for Facet Joint Pain

Facet joint syndrome (facet arthropathy) is pain coming from the small joints of the spine called facet joints. It can affect the neck (cervical), mid-back (thoracic), or lower back (lumbar). Facet joint pain often feels worse with bending backward, twisting, prolonged standing, or sudden movements. It may cause stiffness, restricted spinal motion, and localized back/neck pain that impacts daily activity.

Physiotherapy for Facet Joint Pain and Stiffness

Facet joints can become irritated due to degeneration, posture strain, repetitive extension, or movement overload. Physiotherapy focuses on restoring mobility, strengthening support muscles, and correcting movement patterns to reduce stress on the facet joints. This helps improve pain control and activity tolerance.
