According to recent findings in The Lancet, disability due to

back pain has increased by more than 50% since 1990.

The studies suggest the management of back pain

has been over-medicalized with high-tech

diagnostic procedures and interventions.

Self-care measures and non-drug

treatments have been shown

by research to be both

lower-risk and more

effective.
