Low back pain is one of the most common injuries for athletes and general population. Treating low back pain can be tricky at times, especially when there are so many different philosophies and exercises out there that are said to "target" low back pain.

When I treat low back pain, I like to have a system to guide me to get the best outcome possible. Evidence shows that the best way to treat low back pain is by placing clients into treatment categories and then treat mainly in that category. These categories for low back pain are:

  • Manipulation
  • Stabilization
  • Specific Movement Direction
  • General Movement

In this weeks video, I discuss these four treatment categories and how each client gets placed into each category. This greatly increases your chance of a quick turnaround to get rid of your low back pain and get back to doing what you love!
