The Spine Scribe: Back Pain, Explained

Back pain advice is everywhere. The hard part is knowing which advice applies to you.

The Spine Scribe helps you understand the patterns behind back pain: why sitting might flare one person up, why walking helps another, why stretching sometimes makes symptoms worse, and why a scan finding does not always explain the pain.

This publication is for people who want clearer explanations, less fear, and more practical thinking around back pain.

I write about back pain in plain language, with a focus on pattern recognition, clinical reasoning, and helping people understand what their symptoms may be telling them.

Need help making sense of your own back pain pattern?

I also offer the SpineScribe assessment: a 20-minute online questionnaire that turns your answers into a personalised written report explaining what may be driving your symptoms and what to do next.
