Unlike many clinic-based sessions that run for 20–30 minutes and cycle through generic exercises (there is no one size fits all exercise program for back pain), this program offers 50-minute sessions tailored specifically to you. You’re not just another client in and out the door.

We use targeted motor control exercises, which are proven to help reduce pain by improving how your body moves and responds to load. But we don’t stop at the physical.

We take a big-picture approach — looking at the lifestyle, stress, habits, and patterns that can all play a role in persistent back pain. It's not just about treating symptoms — it’s about understanding what’s driving your pain, and working with you to build long-term strategies for change.

The 12-week program is a movement and lifestyle-based approach designed to address the root causes of persistent back pain—not just the symptoms. Back pain is rarely caused by a single factor, which is why this program takes a whole-person approach.

Each week, we’ll meet for a 50-minute one-on-one session. You’ll be given specific exercises and lifestyle tips designed to strengthen your body and build a more resilient nervous system—helping you move with more confidence and less pain over time.

You’ll also receive a short, easy-to-follow learning presentation each week to help you better understand your pain and support your recovery journey.

This program isn’t about quick fixes—it’s about sustainable, meaningful change that is grounded in science, and tailored to real people.

This process ensures you can participate confidently and get the most out of the course without compromising your safety.

The exercises in this program aren’t pulled from a generic template. They’re carefully chosen to meet you exactly where you’re at — whether its day 1 or exercising for the first time, or whether you’ve been active for years but still in pain.

We use motor control exercises, which focus on retraining how your body moves and stabilises during everyday tasks. These are effective for pain because they improve coordination, reduce excess tension, and help your body move more efficiently — without flaring things up.

We also utilise a graded movement approach, which means we slowly reintroduce movement in a way that’s safe and tolerable for your nervous system. This helps reduce sensitivity over time, allowing your body to feel more confident and less reactive.

And importantly — this program isn’t just about exercise. Exercise is the foundation, but we also explore key lifestyle factors like sleep, stress, daily habits, and nervous system health. These all play a major role in long-term pain recovery.

It’s a whole-person approach — not just a list of exercises.

Yes, this program provides general principles for managing and treating back pain that are applicable to various conditions that may contribute to back pain.

Although this program is only suitable for people who experience back pain that has been around for 3 months or longer (chronic pain). If you’re back pain is acute (recently established), we recommend consulting with a healthcare provider before beginning any exercise program.

The full program is designed to support long-term results, not just short-term relief.

✔ If your pain improves or resolves early on, the remaining sessions focus on building strength, confidence, and strategies to prevent the pain from returning.

✔ The program is structured to be progressive, meaning there’s always something to gain, whether that’s better movement, increased resilience, or a deeper understanding of your body.

✔ If you need additional support beyond the 12 weeks, the program can be extended on a case-by-case basis with ongoing sessions tailored to your progress and goals.

✔ Life happens, and the program is designed to be flexible. If you need to miss a session, we can adjust your schedule to keep you on track (we will pick up where we left off).

✔ You will just continue with the previous week’s work.

✔ The goal is steady progress, not perfection—what matters most is that you keep moving forward in a way that works for you.

✔ Every exercise is adapted to your current abilities, so you will never be asked to do something that feels impossible or unsafe.

✔ If a movement doesn’t feel right, we modify it or find an alternative that works for you.

✔ The goal is not to push through pain but to build confidence in movement at a pace that suits you.

✔ Over time, as your body adapts, you may find that movements you once avoided become easier and more comfortable.
