The human spine is an unstable structure in isolation. Without the complex interaction of many muscles the spine would bend uncontrollably in all directions. When these muscles are weak due to inactivity, the lumbar spine is susceptible to force and pressure which can cause pain.

Prolonged periods in one position or poor manual handling can be excruciating, and in either case it’s important to strengthen the core muscles. At Ladies Only Ltd we have a Wright Foundation Chronic Lower Back Pain specialist exercise instructor who has designed a six-stage progressive routine for people with lower back pain, aimed at improving muscular strength and endurance of the core muscles, balance and posture.

We recommend these exercises are performed daily, avoiding the first couple of hours of the day. When you are exercising in Ladies Only Ltd gym you will be supervised by instructors that can ensure you adopt an effective technique.

We can also give you lifestyle tips or deliver lower back pain workshops to groups to help you to reduce the risk of worsening problems in the future affecting your quality of life.
