Low Back Disorders, Third Edition Online CE Course, guides learners through assessment and treatment of low back pain, providing evidence-based research on the best methods of rehabilitation and prevention of future injury. This course contains all of the essential tools for those who work with clients and patients who have low back maladies.

Based on the third edition of Low Back Disorders by internationally recognized low back specialist Stuart McGill, this course presents the research and applications of back anatomy and biomechanics to build effective prevention and rehabilitation programs. Strong foundational information on anatomy and injury mechanisms guides learners through the essential functions of the structures of the low back and related tissues, and common misconceptions about pain and discomfort are addressed and corrected. The course provides detailed insights into performing injury assessment with an extensive set of tests and accompanying instructions, plus exercises and guidance for developing individualized rehabilitation strategies. In addition to offering strategies for relieving and potentially eliminating pain, it provides insight into the conditions and environments that may initially cause back pain and makes recommendations on reducing these influences so that clients can be pain free.

This ebook features more than 500 photos, graphs, and charts on anatomy, biomechanics, and assessments. Supplementing the practical checklists and step-by-step instructions for 50 tests and exercises are online video clips showcasing various exercises and assessments in action. The study guide offers a course syllabus, chapter objectives, and end-of-chapter learning activities.

Once you complete the course and pass the exam, you can print a certificate for continuing education credits.
