Proper Movement
Every minute of every day, part of you moves. Many of those habitual movements go against keeping the body fit and healthy. Learn these simple rules and enjoy a richer life.
3 Mend My Back Programs to help you on your journey
The Mend My Back Essentials program explores how to reduce inflammation and pain, practice positions to get out of crisis mode and exercises to stabilize the joints surrounding your back.
This program looks at the essentials that were pulled from the larger Conditioning program.
A routine to integrate into your daily life!
Functional movement is underrated. According to the functional movement testing we do at our studio, in retreats, and one-on-one in has revealed important weaknesses in mobility and stability in most cases.
Earlier, we mentioned Ian's story. In hind sight Ian now knows that although he was very fit and athletic, functional movement testing and/or the proper core development program would have allowed him to potentially avoid going down the surgical path.
Most fitness facilities and gyms do not talk nor teach corrective exercise and functional movement to build a solid foundation within the body before relying on machines and training only larger muscle groups and forgetting the little guys who make an impact in resiliency, injury prevention and pain management.
Even in the professional sports world, athletes discover core strength sometimes too late in their career. This is in part because our society and culture foster speed, physical aesthetics, and performance, and often overlooks how a lack of balance negatively impacts overall health and how we age. The best argument we can offer and why you should care about functional movement and strength is to unlock your true physical and energetic potential. Most people go through life never really knowing how it feels to be be vibrant and to move through a day without pain. We can help.
The Mend My Back Conditioning program is a progressive approach to developing this legendary stability and balance very few people get to enjoy. All you have to lose is your rigidity, discomfort and poor posture! Let's get you straightened out.
why we do it
We’ve been there...
One of the founders, Ian, went through quite a journey with back pain which ended in surgery. Thankfully his wife Laura, who is a movement specialist, fitness trainer, coach, yoga instructor, wellness teacher and speaker, had already been exploring back conditions since the beginning of her career.
Through Ian's journey we came to the realization that back pain and problems can be a "black hole". No one really knows where it starts, and how it ends. There really aren't clear guidelines from a health care perspective.
Ian's rehabilitation went well thanks to the help of amazing osteopaths, physiotherapists, physical therapists and chiropractors. His team of specialists allowed us to develop a set of best practices and preventative strategies of our own. Had they been practiced earlier in his life as an athlete, he may have avoided surgery. We decided no one has to go through the long struggle he went through. We decided to fill the gap that exists in our current healthcare system. We designed a protocol and progressive programs for those people suffering from back problems and for those who have the wisdom and know-how to work at preventing back pain before it starts.
