Getting to the Core of the Matter - Effective Evidence-based Rehab for Back Pain Patients
As osteopaths our expertise are found in our hands and our ability to alter tissue states in our patients. However, Lederman (1997) has shown that much of what we do with our hands works at a transient peripheral reflexive level. Liebenson (1998) stresses the importance of giving the patient some control of their rehabilitation - so that they have effective tools for correcting their condition. Hides et al (1996) demonstrated that even one year after back pain has gone, underlying muscle function is not restored - unless it is re-taught.
Matt Walden will discuss the theory and practice of these and other issues with regard to effective osteopathic practice; in order that we can help more patients to lasting health and happiness.
