Episode Description

Thank you for tuning into the Vori Voice, which is brought to you by Vori Health. Vori Health is a nationwide doctor-led specialty medical practice designed to treat back, neck and joint pain more effectively.

Low back pain is one of the most common types of joint pain worldwide, and most of us (studies say at least 80 percent ) will experience it at some point in our lives. We receive many questions from patients on this topic—especially about the need for X-rays and MRIs, as well as what all of the "abnormal" findings mean on an imaging report.

Physical medicine and rehabilitation physician, Dr. Elizabeth Peña, DO joins physical therapist, Jared Aguilar, PT and health coach, Nicole Good, RN to answer our listeners' important questions on these topics. This episode also addresses the common myths and misinformation about low back pain circulating the internet and social media.
