Did you know that up to 90% of low back pain is considered non-specific? That means the great majority of low back pain has NOTHING to do with spinal damage of any sort, yet, low back pain is STILL one of the top causes of disability worldwide. Why is something that is not causing damage to our body such a difficult problem to solve?!
The answer is that chronic low back pain is a complex issue. Our physical and mental well-being both play a pivotal part in how we experience as well as treat chronic low back pain problems. There isn’t one answer that will fit everyone and fitness pros, strength coaches, and physical therapists can no longer afford not to address the emotional side of pain.
Yet, how do people who don’t work in mental health integrate essential strategies into their practice? This is one of the MANY answers that physical therapist, Jessica Bento and strength coach, Josh Henkin will answer in our new Low Back Pain/Pelvic Control Masterclass.
