Are You Struggling With Back Pain In The Merrimack Valley Area?
"Have you tried everything to fix back pain and stiffness, but feel let down?"


A Message From Brett Scott, Owner & Founder of Barbell Therapy & Performance
Dear Frustrated Reader With Back Pain and Stiffness,
- Are you worried about low back pain & stiffness that doesn’t go away no matter how much foam rolling, corrective exercise or stretching you do?
- Are you frustrated that other treatments haven’t worked?
- Are you having trouble keeping up with your workouts and are missing out on your exercise routine and active lifestyle?
- Are you still looking for a long-term solution so you can get back to training without being worried about pain?
If you answered “Yes” to any of these questions, you are in the right place!
You see, many people within Tyngsboro suffer unnecessarily with back pain and stiffness because they’re told…
- Just “rest it” and it’ll be fine (then months later they’re still suffering…)
- Just stop squatting, or doing any other exercise routine they enjoy.
- It’s “normal” with age or intensive workouts.
- If you take some pills everything will be fine.
- Getting injections is the only option.
The Truth Is...
- Resting it doesn’t change anything. You might get a small temporary relief, but then when you get active again you’ll still be suffering from back pain and stiffness (I bet you’ve already experienced it!)
- The inflammation your doctor is telling you caused the pain, is really just a byproduct of a movement or activity issue, that requires a movement solution!
- It’s not normal to get back pain and stiffness as you get older!
- Painkillers are addicting, dangerous, and can cause a lot of other problems with your body.
- Injections and surgery are not the only options. They are just the only options your surgeon can offer you.
At Barbell Therapy & Performance, we help athletes and active adults move better, live pain-free, and get stronger without painkillers, surgery, or injections.
It can be very confusing to decide exactly what you should do if you have back pain and stiffness. You’ve likely heard a lot of options such as…
- A family member tells you to try a certain stretch
- A colleague mentions going to a chiropractor
- The “experts” on YouTube recommend doing a certain exercise
- A friend suggests going to a yoga class
- All while the doctor tells you to rest and take some pills
It’s overwhelming to try to make a decision with all these choices… what will happen if you don’t make the right one?
Most people get stuck trying to make a decision about what to do next. They go days, weeks, months (even years!) without taking action.
You must choose the right provider for your health. If you don’t, you could end up getting dangerous surgery (when it was unnecessary) or being dependent on addicting painkillers the rest of your life.
Getting the “least-invasive”, most natural treatment is VITAL to you stopping your back pain and stiffness and keeping it from ever coming back.
To do that, you have to not just treat the pain, but have a provider who is willing to figure out WHY the pain happened in the first place. That’s when you’ll get a PERMANENT solution to your problems.
At Barbell Therapy & Performance we’ve created a 3 step process to get rid of your pain AND make sure it doesn’t come back again.
Step #1 - We Want to Listen to Your Story
Our medical system is frustrating. You wait weeks, sometimes months, for an appointment, only to get to talk to the doctors for 10 minutes before they have to run to the next patient and you’re left sitting there wondering, “What just happened?”
Even most physical therapy clinics operate this way. They’re not attentive, they’re fast-paced, and your therapist doesn’t have time to actually touch where you hurt.
This is why our first step is to listen to your story.
After working with lots of people with back pain and stiffness, we know that no two people are alike. Each person has a different body, a different history, and different types of pain.
That is why our first step is to have an open conversation and time for you to tell your story. That way we get a deep understanding of what’s going on not just with your body, but also how it’s impacting your life.
Step #2 - Find Out WHY YOUR Back Pain Started
Many people have a diagnosis, or medical term for what’s going on with their body. Maybe their doctor gave it to them, maybe test rests showed the diagnosis, or maybe you found it online.
You could have been told that your only choice was to rest, get injections and take pills, or change your workout routines.
Sometimes, those things bring temporarily relief, but they’re not addressing what CAUSED the problem in the first place.
Every person’s cause of back pain and stiffness is different. No one has the exact same problem caused by the exact same thing as another person.
Our goal at Barbell Therapy and Performance is to find that original cause of your pain, so not only does your pain go away, it STAYS AWAY!
We understand that you still might be skeptical or unsure if physical therapy is right for you. That’s why we created a free taster session. (Yes! That means the first session is ON US!)
Our Consultation Sessions are meant specifically for those people who are skeptical, unsure, or have even been let down in the past. During the Taster Session you’ll find out what’s wrong, how long it’s going to take to fix it, and give you peace of mind that your problem can be fixed naturally!
Step #3 - Get Rid Of The Pain & Keep It From Coming Back
This is when the big transformations occur. We develop a personalized plan that allows you to…
…Get back to exercising without fear of low back pain and stiffness coming back
…Be able to get back to your workouts, training, and competing
…Get back to your pre-injury lifestyle you love
Our best clients are those who are motivated and ready to win back their active lifestyle and athletic lifestyle. (Even if they feel stuck right now!)
Want to know more about our availability and costs before making any commitment to coming in?
You don’t have to sacrifice the workouts and activities you love over problems that can be fixed.
Sincerely,
Dr. Brett Scott, PT, DPT, USAW-1
