Subacute or Chronic Low Back Pain: Non-Surgical Treatment Options

Program Code: 314

Subscriptions: EmmiEngage, EmmiDecide, Faith-Based EmmiEngage

Main changes:

• Updated client-facing and patient-facing names to include "Non-Surgical" in the title
• Changed to include only non-surgical treatment options since we don’t go into any detail on the surgical options; surgery is a “last resort” for most people; we have separate Emmi’s for these cases
• Edited first 2 sections to:
• Include only anatomy/back intro in the “Your Back” section and placed it first so it can be utilized as a stand alone or as intro to other back programs as well
• Broadened “Your Back” section so, again, it can be utilized for a variety of reasons
• Moved other “condition” specific info into the Low Back Pain section
• Removed Surgery & Red Flags section; incorporated “red flags” info into Low Back Pain section
• Separated Medicine and Other Treatments into their own sections (since we got rid of Surgery this makes more sense)
• Moved Other Treatments below Movement and Rehab as they are secondary to rehab
• Made more gender neutral
• Updated Emmi language style to make more concise throughout
