PEMF & Back Pain
Back pain is very common and a recent study found that over 2 thirds (65%) of people in the UK experience back pain each month (1)
It is thought the recent lockdowns have led to an increase in back pain with a survey suggesting over 25% felt their back pain was caused by an inadequate work from home set up (2)
