Do you experience low back pain? Researchers at Bournemouth University are conducting a study to explore how posture and movement throughout the day relate to low back pain.
We are seeking participants who experience low back pain triggered by prolonged sitting or standing. The study involves wearing small sensors on your lower back and thigh to monitor posture and movement during daily activities. You will also complete a short pain diary and receive a routine physiotherapy assessment, including personalised posture advice.
By taking part, you will contribute to important research that aims to improve low back pain management. Participation is entirely voluntary, and you can withdraw at any time.
If you are interested or would like more information, please contact fmcclintock@bournemouth.ac.uk
