How To Treat Lower Back Pain
Lower back pain is one of the most common health problems around the world and healthcare professionals are continuously reviewing how best to treat it. Putting aside the individual for a moment, millions of productive hours are lost in the workplace and, with the loss of earnings that represents, there are serious implications for national economies as many find their ability to work restricted or completely finished. This puts pressure on national agencies to set best practice standards to keep the majority of adults in productive work.
Although the UK often gets a bad press for its National Health Service (NHS), one of the more successful features of the service is the National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence (NICE). This agency is responsible for co-ordinating national healthcare planning and directing individual agencies through clinical guidelines. It reviews all the available scientific information to decide which treatments are sufficiently cost-effective to be adopted across the whole of the NHS. The idea is to ensure that everyone gets the same quality of treatment no matter where they live. More importantly, the evidence-based approach is designed to produce better patient outcomes.
