Listen "10. Low Back Pain and Measuring Spinal Stiffness with SEAN M. HARRIS"

Episode Synopsis

What if there was a way to measure how much stiffness you are generating around the spine and correlating that number with how much weight you lift to determine your risk of pain? That's exactly what Sean is researching and the topic of our conversation. Sean is a DPT, PhD, OCS, FAAOMPT and we cover how he measures spinal stiffness using a Tindeq scale and a modified lifting belt. We discuss his current research, some of his views on low back pain, his approach to assess it, and more. Below are resources to get access to more of Sean's content. Please check it out!
