Suffering from multiple disc bulges and tightness in my lower back I started to learn a smart way to train, a different way to get stronger, a much better way to move and then it all started to change for me.

Now I go to all sorts of crazy obstacle and trail races around the country all pain-free and love it.

At Spinefit we really enjoy helping people like yourself transform from having back pain into higher confidence and get back to doing what you enjoy the most in life.

I remember clearly a few times when I had my flare ups one time was when I was surfing down the coast and I caught a wave and then when my feet hit the sand they gave way on me and fell away from underneath my body, it was scary.

The pain set in and I got really worried quickly.

Luckily we were staying not far from the beach so I was able to hobble home, lie down and start getting some painkillers into me.

There was another time where I was putting my golf shoe on in the back of a car. It was early in the morning, was quite an awkward position and I felt a tweak and a pinch then I knew that something bad had gone wrong again.

One other time when I was a carpenter, I was rolling up a tarpaulin early in the morning and again in a funny awkward position with a flexed rounded spine (you would have thought I had learned by now!) and yep a big pinch and I’d flared it up again.

It was those repeated poor positions, poor lack of mobility and no body awareness on how to position myself to avoid these.

It could be something so simple to cause a flare up of your back.

Now is my time to help others who are going through the same things or have a their own story I can relate too.
