Synopsis

Addressing both the physical and psychological components of low back pain, this book presents a review of the major types of treatment. It focuses on recent approaches to the management of low back pain and offers coping strategies that are easy to learn and designed to minimize the impact of pain, enabling sufferers to live with the problem. The authors first highlight the widespread effects of low back pain and attempt to correct some common misconceptions about its nature and treatment. They then consider a range of self-help strategies including increasing fitness and mobility, reducing levels of stress and minimizing disability, concluding with advice on how to maintain and develop successful coping strategies. The book has evolved over the last five years from patients' responses to the Salford Low Back Pain Programme and it will be appropriate for use by sufferers themselves, as well as for hospital specialists, GPs, occupational and physiotherapistsand clinical psychologists.
