About 80 percent of adults experience low back pain (LBP) at some point in their lifetime. It is the most common cause of job-related disability and a leading contributor to missed workdays. Most LBP is acute or short-term and can last days or a few weeks. 

Most sources of a patient's LBP have a mechanical disruption as the root cause, but only the symptoms of pain, inflammation, and muscle spasms are addressed with pharmacological agents. Photobiomodulation (PBM) has shown to be an effective evidence-based addition to your clinical practice. 

Join Dr. Christopher Carraway as he discusses the multifaceted approach to managing low back pain. From start to finish, combining active and passive care with physical medicine and PBM can yield superior outcomes for low back pain patients.
