Mark Laslett summarizes diagnosis & treatment of lumbosacral pain syndromes, based on over 50 years of continuous clinical practice & 30 years of active research and teaching of courses internationally. Mark has actively promoted the retirement of the concept of "non-specific" low back pain for over 20 years, based on its failure to make any impact of back pain's increasing prevalence & effect on patients' life & work. He presents examples of the main subgroups of the back pain spectrum: * Mechanical Discogenic Pain * Non-Mechanical Discogenic & vertebrogenic Pain * The Radicular Syndromes * Lumbar Facetogenic Pain * Sacroiliac Joint Pain * Stress Fractures of the Posterior Column * Spinal Stenosis Mark identifies the major known & identifiable subgroups within the back pain spectrum, demonstrating how expert physiotherapy and medical clinicians diagnose these conditions. Also, the evidence base for the treatment of these subgroups is briefly described and a short bibliography is provided. Follow him on X (Twitter) @marklaslett_NZ
