Back School is defined as a structured LBP program usually in a group. There is insufficient evidence to recommend this for people with LBP; however, one well-designed study suggests that in the occupational setting, Back School, including specific work-site directions, may be an effective adjunct to patient education by the physician.

In Eva-May's case there is no Back School where she works.
