Abstract
Low back pain is a very common presentation in acute medical setting.
Approximately 8 billion people in the UK report chronic pain that is moderate to severely disabling [1].
Back pain alone accounts for 40% of sickness absence in the NHS[2] and overall it costs 10 billion GBP for the UK economy[3].
