Low back pain is a common and debilitating condition affecting many people. In recent years, guidelines such as Australia’s Low Back Pain Clinical Care Standard have been developed to provide a framework for best practice clinical care, covering components such as when to use imaging and medication.

In this episode, Adnan Asger Ali and Chad Cook explore approaches to treating low back pain, including manual therapy, CFT and exercise-based therapies. They also examine how physiotherapists can balance patient expectations with best-practice, evidence-based care.

Recorded at APASC25 in Adelaide, October 23-25.
