How to Solve Chronic Non-Specific Low Back Pain: The Wheelhouse Protocol (U.S. Patent Pending)
ABSTRACT
Chronic low back pain has been identified as a significant problem worldwide. It has significant cost to employers and employees as a result of time lost from work (Hoy et al. 2012) as well as indirect treatment costs (Krismer and Van Tulder 2007). Nonspecific low back pain comprises 90% of low back pain cases, which have no known cause (Krismer and Van Tulder 2007). Kuchera (2008) pointed out that chronic pain often results in "anxiety, depression, and a reduction in quality of life" (p. 33). Without an apparent pain source or cause, treatment is often a challenge for clinicians, and the ambiguous nature of the condition makes it difficult for patients to endure. A new theory is proposed for the cause of this condition and a treatment protocol will be introduced, called The Wheelhouse ProtocolSM, to "cure" the patient, with presentation of emerging clinical data to support the treatment protocol/approach. With 90% of low back pain cases involving chronic non-specific low back pain, clinicians are uniquely positioned to identify the cause and implement treatment quickly to resolve the condition before it produces other maladies.
LEARNING OBJECTIVES
After this session, participants will:
1. be able to identify 3 causative factors of chronic non-specific low back pain (LBP)
2. be able to identify the proposed primary condition causing chronic non-specific low back pain and;
3. be able to articulate how The Wheelhouse ProtocolSM may be effective in the treatment of chronic non-specific LBP
