I’ve worked in the Health & Fitness industry for nearly 40 years and it is rare when I meet a new client who has never had an issue with back pain. It seems to be something that happens to us all at some point, but the good news is that you can help yourself by retraining your movement patterns and improving your posture.
My goal in my ABC Workshops is to give you the tools to achieve and maintain good posture as well as a flexible, strong spine. This will help you to move your body freely and efficiently without fear of pain and injury, so that you are able to do the things you love to do and/or need to do every day.
The focus is on functional movements for everyday life with improved posture.
ABC is for people who suffer from chronic back pain, who want to regain control of their movement patterns, and their life!
It is for anyone who has an ‘active’ hobby or a physical job, as well as those in sedentary jobs, and for those of us who enjoy walking the dog, playing with the kids/grandkids, doing some gardening/housework, DIY - in fact - absolutely everyone.
We will look at your posture and your everyday movement patterns/habits and explore the areas which are preventing you from achieving good posture, such as a lack of mobility in the thoracic (ribcage) spine, the shoulder, the hip, or maybe it is a lack of glute (buttock) strength and pelvic stability. I will show you exercises that you can do to strengthen the weak areas, stretch the tight areas, and improve your posture and movement habits overall so that you regain your confidence in your body. You will have a handout of the notes and exercises from the workshop so that you can recap in your own time.
My YouTube Channel has a series of videos which are all relevant to Active Back Care. You will find the link here Active Back Care Playlist
