The Schneider Back Pain Clinic Retreat Program

There is little evidence that the benefits for patients with chronic back pain are improving with traditional treatments.

Schneider Back Pain Clinic Retreat program will introduce you to the modern view of back pain management, control and relief.

The most promising interventions involve listening to your complaints, meeting your expectations, educating you about your back, and designing exercise based activities to control your condition and minimise your back pain.

You will have the time to communicate how your back pain is affecting various aspects of your life. No more 10 minute consultations!.

You will learn that flare-ups do not mean that your condition is deteriorating, that these recurrences are to be expected, and that they can be controlled.

You will be instructed on how to minimise back pain flare-ups, and this advice will give you the confidence to be less apprehensive, and to resume activity.

Schneider Back Pain Clinic - Biomechanical Basis

Ideally, each of the 5 vertebrae in your low back should move with a stable and balanced action.

Your spine also favours certain directions of movement. The correct directions assist recovery. The wrong directions may cause aggravation & lower back pain. For example, if you have an unstable vertebra, exercising into extension creates unnatural reaction forces which cause pain.

The Schneider Back Pain Clinic Retreat program is based on a biomechanical analysis of your back movements. From this a plan of management is developed to emphasise the ideal directions of back movements, and to restore more normal quality of movement.

The emphasis is on normal, freer movement, rather than strength.

You will leave the clinic educated in new back habits which will enhance the stability and quality of your spinal movements, and allow you to gain control of your back.

As the program is highly personalised and tailored to your individual needs small groups of only 3 participants will attend the clinic at any one time.

Don't put up with your aching back any longer - it's time to take control.
