Classical Stretch - back pain relief and prevention DVD - the esmonde technique

80% of all people suffer from back pain at some point in their lives. 95% of those people can be treated successfully by regularly following the correct exercise program. Classical Stretch reaches deeply into the entire back and adjoining muscle groups releasing the pain caused by muscle imbalance and weakness.
In this DVD, Miranda reviews some of the basic exercises and offers tricks to prevent a future spasm or full blown back pain attack.

Breakdown & description of the workouts:

Workout for upper back pain relief -14 min
This workout relieves stress and pain in the shoulders and upper back. This is not a conditioning program, but a therapeutic one that can be done as often as you wish.

Workout for lower back pain relief- 14 min
This workout gently loosens up contracted muscles to help increase the blood flow into the lower back and hips. The program should relax and soothe the lower back region.

We recommend that you do both workout 1 and 2 as many times a day as you want in order to get maximum relief.

Workout to relieve minor back pain and prevent attacks - 30 min This is a conditioning workout that should be done after the spasm or full-blown attack has finished; you may still be experiencing some minor back pain and your muscles will be feeling fragile and weak so go easy. The purpose of this 30-minute workout is to rebalance your muscles by equally stretching and strengthening them.

In order to regain your full strength, we recommend you do this workout 2 to 3 times per week.

This workout gets to the root of tight, painful back and hip muscles liberating them to achieve both increased range of motion and release of pain. Although the abdominal muscles are challenged throughout the workout, the floor work sequence is long, unique and strengthens the entire back and abdominal group. This is a workout you can do repetitively and notice increased strength and flexibility after each session.
