The "Free From Pain Exercise Book" Versus "The Back Book".

This pragmatic randomised control feasibility trial aims to investigate the effectiveness of the \"Free From Pain Exercise Book\" in comparison to \"The Back Book\" for reducing back pain in adults aged 60 and over. The \"Free From Pain Exercise Book\" contains a 12-week exercise and education programme. The programme is designed to reduce early osteoarthritic and generalised musculoskeletal pain and fear of falling in people over the age of 60. The study will compare the effects of the Free from Pain programme when engaged in independently versus the provision of \"The Back Book\", which is a booklet that promotes physical activity and a reduction of sedentary behaviour for the purpose of reducing back pain.
