Online Back Care coaching Masterclass

Thank you for your interest in our Back Care Masterclass 6 week course

We want to help you take control of your back and improve your quality of life with a series of easy to follow videos and exercises!

What to expect from video tutorials:

1. We will help you better understand how your back works and how it can commonly go wrong.

2. We will then provide you with a selection of specific exercises and techniques, honed and developed over the last 30 years and used to successfully treat thousands of happy patients at our clinics.

3. Additionally, the course introduces you to the concept of Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and teaches how to use this to help manage your chronic pain when life is not going to plan.

Your commitment to yourself!

Give yourself just 30 minutes a week for 6 weeks to watch the two videos for that week.

You can then turn your newly learnt mobility exercise sequence into practice as often as you require throughout the week.

As you become more body and back movement aware, you can add the workouts, using the CBT techniques to help, especially when life goes slightly off plan!

If you have Cauda Equina back pain symptoms seek urgent help from your nearest A&E.

Cauda Equina syndrome is a rare but serious condition that may be associated with back pain and requires emergncy medical attention. When you attend A&E you need to make them aware of the symptoms you have been getting.
