Healthy Backs

More than 80% of the adult population suffer from low back pain at some time in their life. It is one of the most common reasons why people take time off work, and may be distressing and frustrating as quality of life often suffers.

These 'Healthy Backs' videos give you gentle, balanced workouts with the focus on strengthening the core abdominals that do so much to support your back, improve the quality of your movements and keep your spine flexible and strong. We also have videos which give you the theory behind the exercises and information on why movement is so crucial when it comes to combatting back pain.

All 'Healthy Backs' videos are presented by either Level 4 Low Back Pain specialist instructors or qualified physiotherapists/physicians.
