Dealing With Acute Low Back Pain DVD was developed by Physical Therapist, Harry Benich, to enhance the progress and effectiveness of a physical therapy program for patients with Acute Low Back Injuries. Due to shrinking reimbursement by health insurances, physical therapists are very limited in the time they have with patients and often the treatment programs cannot be completed, restoring patients to full pre-injury status. Principles and basic skills are taught for most patients with spine or lumbo-pelvic injuries to prevent further injury and allow healing to occur as rapidly as possible. Included is a home-based circuit-style exercise program for restoring and building strength.This product is manufactured on demand using DVD-R recordable media. Amazon.com's standard return policy will apply. |

Love This DVD by Roger Moen (Breckenridge, CO USA)  5 Stars
November 09, 2007
I bought this for my wife who is recovering from an operation on a badly herniated disc. We reviewed the exercises with her physical therapist, and he said they were appropriate for her. She's been doing them faithfully for around a month now, starting slowly and gradually adding repetitions. The DVD also has general tips on how to do self-traction, stretching, etc. I'm no doctor or physical therapist, but it makes sense to me -- and more importantly, it's helping my wife get a workout, while slowly and carefully increasing the strength in her back and core. Try it! But of course review with your health care professional, to make sure the exercises are appropriate for you.

This DVD is good for someone who has never exercised in their life. It has some very good tips but again for someone who has never exercised.If you have been to physical therapy even once then you have covered all that is in this DVD. I was disappointed that there wasn't more information for the price. They have a nice explanation of the exercises.
