The longitudinal effects of a physical activity programme on the physical fitness and disability of back pain patients: Service evaluation

Abstract: OBJECTIVE:To evaluate the longitudinal effect of a group physical activity service to help patients self-manage un-resolving back pain. BACKGROUND:Back pain is one of the most common and costly conditions. Large scale trials have demonstrated a role for less traditional treatment including exercise, yet the long term effects of patient centred, group physical activity programmes remains unclear.
