BBC Radio 4 - Inside Health, Back pain

James Gallagher puts your back pain questions to an expert panel.

James Gallagher puts your questions on back pain - a condition impacting millions of adults every year – to an expert panel.

Lower back pain impacts millions of adults every year and, in many cases, diagnosis can be murky. Non-specific pain is personal and complex, driven by factors such as injury, sensitivity and perception. But are there methods to help manage back pain and live a happier life in the process?  

James Gallagher is joined at a yoga studio in Stockbridge, Hampshire by Emma Godfrey, psychology researcher at Kings College London, chiropractor David Elliot, physiotherapist Richard Husselbee, and yoga instructor, Alison Trewhela to answer all your back pain questions (and takes to the mat himself to try some gentle healthy lower back poses). 

Producer: Julia Ravey
