When I was in active practice I was often asked, and now working with clients that I train individually, I continue to be asked, a recurrent question.

“Doctor Fudala… What is the best treatment for low back pain?”

For those of you surfing at warp speed, with the attention span of a hummingbird, and want to get right to the point… here is the answer.

There is no such thing as a “best” treatment. And, if your clinician tells you that a certain treatment has been shown to be clearly better than others, they are “cherry picking” the scientific literature, or giving you their own biased opinion, to support the type of treatment they most likely earn their living providing.
