Course Description:

All patients with low back pain (LBP) are unique and require an individualized treatment approach. Using clinical prediction rules (CPRs) in addition to the ICF classification can help physical therapists match patients with the most effective interventions for their clinical presentation. In this course, learners will gain an understanding of how to apply the CPRs for LBP to their patients to increase the efficiency and effectiveness of their treatments.

The goal of this course is to teach PT professionals how to use the CPRs for spinal stabilization and spinal manipulation in patients with low back pain.
