Back pain while sitting at work: Physical therapy review at Madirang Orthopedic Clinic in Seoul

Perhaps due to my habit of sitting for long periods at work, I often suffered from back and shoulder pain. Sometimes, I even had difficulty lifting my legs, so I decided to seek medical attention. During my first visit, the medical staff calmly guided me through the examination, allowing me to relax. After the X-ray, the doctor looked at the image with me and explained where the strain was concentrated. Rather than simply saying, "It's bad," he helped me understand the underlying cause of the pain. He particularly emphasized that repetitive postures and habits in daily life were the biggest causes of the pain and provided specific suggestions for immediate correction. Physical therapy and medication were combined, and after a few days, my stiff back began to feel a bit more relaxed. Most importantly, the doctor's explanation of the treatment as "a process of understanding your body to prevent recurrence" rather than "a treatment that provides immediate relief" was particularly impressive. The friendly and relaxed atmosphere made me want to visit this clinic again.
