Most patients with back pain will require surgery.

Explanation:

In most cases, back pain will resolve on its own with treatment at home and over-the-counter medications. Some patients benefit from spinal traction, a physiotherapy technique that applies a longitudinal stretch to the reachable joints and soft tissues that is commonly used on the cervical, lumbar spine and thoracic spine. Surgery is not usually recommended.

Imagine health and wellness care the way it should feel: Grounded in science, obsessed with results and wrapped up in empathic support. That’s how we do it here at TMB. We’re a virtual and Toronto functional medicine clinic. We also specialize in contemporary Pilates, chiropractic care and acupuncture. At our core, however, we are a wellness brand focused on sustainable long-term solutions for your health that feel genuinely good to live by. What makes us different? We’ve been where you are – straddling allopathic and alternative medicine, struggling, frustrated, feeling uncomfortable in our bodies, feeling clouded in our mindset and being told things are “fine” while we know they’re not, or being offered band-aid solutions that don’t resonate. The TMB Method is a person-centered approach to health that functionally assesses, tests and treats you as a whole human being – body, mindset, movement, nutrition and more. If you’re ready for better digestion, sustained energy, deeper sleep, radiant skin and aging with confidence in a fun, upbeat environment, join our empowered community and experience how incredible life can really be. Even our own patients can’t quite describe what we do and often resort to saying, “They’re just magic!”
