About OwBack

OwBack started as Back Pain Blog UK in 2007, created by Barbara McLullich — a chronic pain sufferer who wanted to share her journey and help others living with back pain.

Over 17 years and thousands of articles, the blog became a trusted resource for people dealing with back pain, fibromyalgia, arthritis and other chronic pain conditions.

What We Cover

• Treatments — from physiotherapy and acupuncture to spinal cord stimulators and CBD
• Product Reviews — honest reviews of pain relief products, supports and aids
• Living with Pain — practical tips for daily life, sleep, exercise and mental health
• Health Awareness — awareness campaigns for fibromyalgia, arthritis, rare diseases and more
• Research — latest medical research and developments in pain management

Our Commitment

Every article is written from lived experience. We don't just report on pain — we understand it. Our content is informed by 17 years of personal experience, medical appointments, treatment trials and conversations with thousands of fellow pain sufferers.

In 2024, Barbara retired from active blogging. The archive of 2,500+ articles continues to help people worldwide find information, support and hope.
