There is an increasing burden of LBP. Clinical guidelines promote physical activity (PA) and self-management strategies and aim to reform unhelpful clinical activity. This study explores osteopaths' beliefs about non-specific low back pain (NSLBP) and the role of activity in the treatment of NSLBP. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with a purposive sample of twelve qualified osteopaths in the UK. Interviews were transcribed verbatim and constructivist grounded theory was used to conceptualise, collect and analyse data.Background
