The secret to fixing our back pain lies not within medication, repeat ‘treatments’ or surgery. It lies deeply rooted within our lifestyle, mindset and behaviour - in the way we behave as an animal. Movement is medicine - it is the missing link, the active ingredient in treating our back pain - whether highly-trained elite athletes, sedentary office workers, or manual labourers. Find your inner ape – understand that you are your own best therapy. Learn how to tailor your lifestyle.
