The Back Pain Pandemic, Part 2: Low Back Pain 

Wednesday, August 12th at 7 PM

Under normal circumstances, 80% of the population experiences back pain at some point in their life. Low back pain can be a result of sprains, strains, degeneration or even neurological issue. Regardless, there are many options for treating low back pain that do not necessarily include surgery. This week we are joined by non-operative spine specialist, Dr. James Natalicchio from Active Orthopedics and returning is EXCEL co-founder and President, Matt Gibble. We will be discussing in detail the causes of low back pain specifically, and the non-operative medical options for treating it. We will also be providing a quick and easy exercise program specific to low back pain.

Dr. James Natalicchio received his BA from Duke University and his medical degree from Columbia University and St. Georges University School of Medicine. He is board certified in physical medicine and rehabilitation and subspecialty certified in pain medicine. Dr. Natalicchio practices non-operative musculoskeletal medicine and specializes in non-operative spine care.
