6 week Low Back Pain Course
Service Description
This group class is designed to help anyone who has struggled with Low Back Pain or would like to avoid it in the future. It is constructed to provide challenging, but safe exercises for all ages and activity levels. It will begin on Tuesday, March 25 from 12-1pm at 311 Price Street, and continue each following Tue for 6 weeks. It is available via zoom, and will be recorded so you are able to watch at a later time if needed. We will start about 5 after the hour, and wrap up at 5 till for anyone attending on a lunch break. You will meet as a group 1x/week to go through specific exercises and treatment techniques to help with your back pain, progress your strength and flexibility, and prevent future problems. Alicia has been working with low back pain patients for nearly 20 years, and will provide accommodations and modifications to keep you safe throughout. Videos and information will be given weekly as homework ranging from proper nutrition to help with your pain, ergonomic set ups to avoid aggravating the back, education in back mechanics and activity, as well as specific exercises and stretches based off your current function and pain levels. This is the perfect transition for those folks that have participated in Physical Therapy, and are ready to be discharged, but don’t feel totally comfortable continuing to work on their own. Never been to PT and unsure if you can handle it? No worries! I will adjust the exercises to make sure you stay safe, yet still make gains. It’s also the perfect class to learn new tricks and techniques to prevent future LBP, and just to strengthen your core and improve your overall function! The cost is $200 for the course, which is just over $30/session. This is often less than the cost of a co-pay if you are attending PT, so also a great option for those on a budget. If you can't make this 6 week course, but are interested, reach out to Alicia at 907-623-8708 to get on the wait list for the next 6 week course!
