The role of seating in addressing posterior pain

In this session we will explore the fundamentals of reported pain, how it can present, how it can impact function and how often a chair is seen as the solution.

This session is aimed at providing therapists the opportunity to think around this common issue and enable them to ask investigatory questions to help adjust seating as required.
