This review of non-surgical care of the spine addresses the treatment of the majority of patients seeking relief from back pain. All aspects of back-care - from anatomy, physiology, and biomechanics - to psychosocial, emotional, and economic factors - to assessment of pain in disability, ergonomic considerations in work place design, vocational retraining and legal issues are covered. Occupational medicine, osteopathic physiotherapy, sports medicine and chiropractic options to spinal care are fully covered as well as surveillance systems for the acutely injured patient. In discussing the sub-acute patient, rehabilitation and reconditioning, quantification of function, and pre- and post-operative considerations are described. This book offers specific recommendations for the rehabilitation of the patient with spinal disorders - particularly low back pain.
