Rethinking low back pain management with Dr Kevin Wernli

In this episode with Dr Kevin Wernli, we dive into the complexities associated with low back pain. We discuss the importance of clearing red flags, patient beliefs and the role of specific pathology. Kevin also imparts his knowledge about habitual versus exercise programs and talks us through how he delivers these with his patients to encourage patient autonomy and compliance.

This episode is closely tied to Kevin’s Practical he did with us. With Practicals you can see exactly how top experts assess and treat specific conditions – so you can become a better clinician, faster.
