In this episode of the Barbell Rehab Podcast, we sit down with Emily Walker, PhD candidate & exercise physiologist, to discuss her research around low back pain. We examine different ways to look at the problem of low back pain and concerns around siloing the biopsychosocial model into discrete categories of biology, psychology, or sociology. We discuss patient-led goal setting and rolling-with-resistance strategies. We conclude by discussing Emily's newest publication around social determinants of health, why these are relevant, and how clinicians can help. You can find Emily on Instagram at @emwalker_exphys and on ResearchGate at https://www.researchgate.net/profile/Emily-Walker-71.
We hope you enjoy this episode!
