BACK PROGRAM

For a better quality of life

Back pain?
Lack of exercise, stress & Co.: Back pain as a symptom of our time

Eight hours or more in the office, then a quick evening of putting a frozen pizza in the oven and hitting the couch – our everyday lives can take a toll on our backs. Lack of exercise, excess weight, stress, and poor posture are toxic to our backs and can contribute to lower back pain. It's no wonder back pain is considered the number one health problem today! It's good to know: A slipped disc is far less commonly the cause of lower back pain than widely assumed. Muscle tension is much more common.

Exercise and physiotherapy for back pain

The treatment modules currently used for back pain include both active and passive approaches. Active approaches to treating back pain:
  • Physiotherapy and subsequent Movement training to prevent new back pain
  • Relaxation techniques such as progressive muscle relaxation according to Jacobson
Passive approaches to treating back pain:
  • Manual therapy (special hand-grip techniques)
  • Massages (e.g. to relieve tension)
  • Packs (e.g. mud pack)
The targeted training Strengthening the back and abdominal muscles can protect against new back problems. The stronger the muscles, the lower the risk of back pain. Special back exercises (back school) are suitable. Back training on special equipment can be helpful. A healthy diet leads to a reduction in the long-term strain and stress caused by excess weight.
