Summary

Eighty percent of the population experiences prolonged back pain at some point in their lives. Now, with these simple, easy-to-perform exercises using Pilates, yoga, Alexander Technique, and stability balls, sufferers will notice improvement in as little as 2 weeks--and marked results in 4 to 6 weeks. Along with the exercises, the book offers a symptoms questionnaire to help you identify your specific back problems; discusses treatments such as surgery, osteopathy, chiropractic, and physiotherapy; and answers common questions on the dos and don'ts of back care. Here's the safe, sensible solution to an agonizing problem, complete with everything from guidance on how to bend, lift, and play safely, to the prevention and care of back problems during pregnancy.
