Hobby Reupholster-er - I'd like to reupholster a chair that has this style of back. Problem is, I can't see it in person to know how to work around the wood bar on the back. I'm hoping the seat can be removed by and it's not actually attached to the bar. Anyone have experience working with this type of seat?

I understand how to reupholster the seat part. That screws off and is easy. But how am I suppose to remove the backing part? Iโve tried and it seems glued on or something. Anyone have advice? There are zero videos on YouTube on how to deal with this type of backing on a Scandinavian dining chair.
I made an effort to remove some of the material on the backing to see what was holding it in place (thatโs what you see in the pictures). I canโt find any screws or anything. I tried prying it loose with a screwdriver. It feels like itโs glued on real tight.

Update
I removed the padding from the top of chair and thereโs no obvious way to remove the wood backing. I tried prying it away with screwdriver but itโs stuck on good. Should I just call it a day and bring in the professionals?
