Demystifying Low Back Pain: Practical Approach to Diagnosis and Rehab

Description

This webinar offers healthcare professionals an in-depth approach to evaluating and treating low back pain through systematic classification system. Focusing on evidence-based techniques, this course equips participants with the skills to identify movement dysfunctions that contribute to low back pain, differentiate between various types of pain presentations, and classify pain using a variety of methods to best diagnose and manage low back pain.

Participants will explore the intricate relationship between movement patterns, core stability, and the biomechanics of the lumbar spine. Emphasis is placed on using a systematic approach to identifying important musculoskeletal impairments to tailor individualized treatment programs that address both acute and chronic low back pain. Advanced topics include the role of the kinetic chain, neuromuscular reeducation, and dynamic stabilization techniques, ensuring participants can create effective long-term solutions for their patients.

This course is ideal for physical therapists, chiropractors, athletic trainers, and other healthcare professionals looking to refine their diagnostic and therapeutic skills for low back pain management. By the end of the webinar, participants will have the knowledge to confidently assess, classify, and manage low back pain using a systematic approach.
