Dr. Kevin Wernli unpacks his research on patients’ beliefs about relationships between low back pain, posture and movement. We’re helping you support patients as they challenge their own beliefs about pain and moving.

Kevin’s approach focuses on liberating the person to test their own beliefs with information and knowledge from trusted sources. Today we’re tackling the common belief that “my back is easy to injure and hard to heal”.
