BACK PAIN
According to NICE, the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence, up to 60% of the adult population can expect to have lower back pain at some point in their lives.
It is responsible for more than 12 million sick days a year according to public service union, Unison.
TeamDoctor is therefore delighted to launch its back pain structured education course this month as a first port of call for anyone getting that first lower back twinge they didn’t bargain for.
The short, film-based course explains what back pain is and why we get it
What to do if you do have it
How to prevent getting back pain in the first place
Exercises to strengthen your back
“This is the best set of films, giving honest advice, that I have ever seen. If you are suffering from back pain it is really a must watch video collection highlighting the best treatment and management for all. Down to earth advice on medication, the many therapies available and when surgery might be indicated.”
Chairman of the largest UK back pain charity Backcare, Dr Brian Hammond
