I've been having lower back pain forthe last 2 weeks and have been for physiotherapy every 2-3 days . I'm told i will need more sessions. It's costing me a fortune!! How affective is physiotherapy? anyone out there with similar experience?

Been there; done that! I can't speak for others, but it was a major waste of time and money for me. I got my lower back injured in 1980 and since then I've had just about everything done. Nothing has had much effect but there are a lot of richer doctors out there thanks to my injury..

I don't know about physiotherapy but I do know a bit about muscles, pain and referred pain. A book called The Trigger Point Therapy Workbook by Davies in combination with a good chiropractor (I prefer those who use an activator) and/or massage therapist who has the information condensed like the book puts it will do wonders a lot faster.
