What the evening covers

A practical session on evaluation, treatment options, and next steps.

The session is built for people living with persistent back pain and for the family members who help them make decisions. No prior knowledge is assumed, and every term is explained as it comes up.

The first half covers how back pain is evaluated: what the history tells us, what imaging can and cannot show, and the warning signs that warrant a specialist opinion sooner rather than later.

The second half walks through the range of treatment, from activity change and therapy to injections and, where the findings support it, surgery. The evening closes with open questions.
