Sponsor's own description

This research is aiming to address whether a group workshop is a more superior treatment to traditional physiotherapy for the management of back pain in a hospital workforce. In the UK during 2016-17, 31.2 million work days were lost due to work-related ill health and injury. Of these 8.9 million were down to musculoskeletal disorders. This equated to 17.6 days per person. In the general population, the reports of low back pain have been as high as 36% of adults with a first occurrence. In an adult's lifetime, the prevalence of chronic low back pain is about 23%. This makes the importance of managing these conditions of great importance. And the impact to a working population is great, in respects to work satisfaction, sickness and absenteeism. Significance should also be placed on the impact this has to the individual, with regards to their health and wellbeing. The participants will be taken from NHS staff working within the hospital environment and that self-refer internally for physiotherapy into the Trust's Occupational Health Service. Once the participants are accepted in Occupational Health Physiotherapy, they are managed as staff requiring physiotherapy and not at 'patients'. There is no contact with their primary care practitioner. For the study, participants will either receive traditional one to one physiotherapy or a bespoke one off workshop. All of the participants will be followed up 3 months after their treatment has finished.
