Back Pain? Your MRI May be Showing Wrinkles on the Inside
As a physical therapist, I see a lot of patients with neck and back pain. In my experience treating these patients, the majority have MRI findings that they want to discuss prior to treatment. However, it is important to take a closer look at what our MRIs may or may not be saying.
Why Your Posture May Be Causing Low Back Pain
