LOW BACK PAIN TUTORIAL
Are you frustrated by “One Size Fits All” approaches to low back pain, but not sure what else to do for your clients?
In truth, we can recover from injury, or prevent future injury from taking place, with regular care and feeding of our hips and low back. What does that look like? Functional and progressive movements that both challenge us to maintain healthy mobility and stability, and help us to organize our whole body movements.
In this tutorial you will:
- Learn a movement-based approach to working with clients who have an array of low back pain sources
- Acquire a progression of exercise techniques for clients either with diagnosed injuries or unspecified pain
- Review musculoskeletal anatomy to better understand how bodies move, adapt, maladapt, get injured, experience pain, and heal
- Learn common pathologies to better understand the cascade of your body’s response to tissue injury, as well as how pain is commonly patterned in response to these injuries
- Study up-to-date, biopsychosocial pain science that breaks down old beliefs in order to paint a more accurate picture of the often complicated and counterintuitive behavior of pain

WHAT STUDENTS ARE SAYING
“I found the low back pain tutorial to be a great resource! Both in understanding how different ways of movement might affect pain levels (eg flexion vs extension), as well as giving me some real tangible exercises to play around with in my own body and hopefully 11integrate with my patients. I also had so many resounding “YES!” moments in listening to you women speak. The idea of posterior tilt not being a moral failing (I laughed out loud), and the idea of observing/treating someone through movement, and not diagnosis-based (solely). I feel lucky to have crossed paths with you and intend to soak up all that I can!” - Erica Rodas, Occupational Therapist

ABOUT MOVEMENT LOGIC
The Movement Logic tutorials aim to enhance your problem-solving skills so you can work more effectively with your students and clients who are injured or in pain.
Become Anatomically and Biomechanically Informed
- Learn musculoskeletal anatomy to better understand how bodies move, adapt, maladapt, get injured, experience pain, and heal
- Familiarize yourself with common pathologies to better understand the cascade of your body's response to tissue injury, as well as how pain is commonly patterned in response to these injuries
Understand Pain
- You'll study up-to-date, biopsychosocial pain science that breaks down old beliefs in order to paint a more accurate picture of the often complicated and counterintuitive behavior of pain
- The biopsychosocial model is a holistic perspective to pain that looks at the relationship between your biology, your mind, and society, and how those elements together influence your whole body experience of pain
Acquire Teaching skills
- You will acquire corrective exercise techniques for helping private clients who have diagnosed injuries as well as those with unspecified pain
- You'll learn best practices for presenting these corrective exercises in a group class
