Merrymeeting Adult Education

There is no one treatment that helps everyone with back pain. This course begins with the common diagnoses and treatments for back pain. Discussion covers changes associated with chronic pain which affect every aspect of life, and the adaptations people with chronic back pain have found to improve function and decrease pain. Participants are encouraged to share what has and hasn’t worked for them. Bring whatever adaptive equipment needed for comfortable sitting/lying. Taught by Julie Zimmerman, RPT (ret.).
