Exercising These Muscles Can Eliminate Back Surgery
Does your back ache? Most back pain can be treated without surgery. As a rehab clinician, I’ve seen many people who’ve had unsuccessful back surgery and often wonder why a non-surgical approach wasn’t recommended by their doctor first?
Numerous studies suggest that physical therapy is very effective at treating back pain with far less risks.
When you go to the physical therapist, you may be surprised that they don’t just focus on your back muscles when treating you for back pain.
Your back pain treatment will include working your glutes, hamstrings and your abdominals utilizing therapeutic techniques because these muscles support your back and your pelvis. It’s important that you don’t just go to a gym and work these muscles yourself as the pacing and form are crucial for best results and to decrease injury risk.
You can see the correct form and pacing in the Get Stronger Bones DVD which has a Back Stretch and Strength and a walking workout that works all the necessary muscles safely. In addition, the Total Strength and Conditioning has a vertical ab workout you can do sitting or standing.
Meanwhile check out this free video I made for you to work your glutes to help you get a pain free back!
