Historically, back care and rehabilitation strategies have focused on corrective exercises that engage the lower back in isolation and in one plane of motion. The lower back is greatly dependent upon the proper functioning of the feet, pelvis, thoracic spine, and shoulder girdle. Integrated Back Rehabilitation-Regression to Progression explores how these areas of the body interrelate to each other and details strategies to improve and strengthen motion throughout the entire movement chain. The DVD explains how trainers can develop a tri-plane approach to lower-back health by blending traditional exercises and then progressing to integrated movements.
