Topic Info:

Retaining the back pained client requires an assessment to understand the mechanism of their pain. Pain is almost always influenced by specific motions, postures and loads. The results of the assessment guide a movement approach to reduce the pain triggers and allow pain desensitization. Then the program changes to rebuild the essential foundation for the client to meet the demands of their lives with improved resilience and performance.
