CHEK INSTITUTE: Overcoming Chronic Back Pain: An Integrative/Holistic Approach (lecture)
Suzi Nevell
Back pain is an ailment that affects many personal training clients, yet its etiology and progression can be multi-dimensional. This workshop shows you how to approach clients with back pain from a holistic perspective, using the hierarchy of control centers in the body to determine exercise priorities. You will understand how key stabilizers of the spine and core are linked to the function of the respiratory system and how feed-forward and feedback loops within these areas contribute to back pain. Suzi will show how back pain is often an expression of some other imbalance in the body, rather than purely musculoskeletal in origin and you will leave with practical approaches to prioritizing your efforts when working with clients who suffer from chronic back pain.
