Better Backs Program
12 Weeks to a Better Back
Ideal Health has developed a Better Back Clinical Exercise program which is designed to improve your health after a back injury.
We have created this program to run over 12 weeks, as research says that this is the optimal time for the body to develop core strength, muscle strength, better posture and improved flexibility, which are all essential to help ease your back pain.
Many back injuries occur due to weakness of your core, gluteal and pelvic floor muscles. These 3 groups of muscles are known as the pelvic ring and work together to help stabilise the back. Without adequate strength the body is more prone to reduced flexibility and poor posture, causing the back to be more vulnerable to injury.

How do we know?
With decades of combined experience with a multi-disciplinary and multi-modal approach we have found the ideal scenario to get you back to your best. People from all walks of life have benefited from our clinical exercise rehabiliation and we cannot wait to help you get back to your best.
What does the program include?
A 1-1 Clinical Exercise consultation and assessment is essential prior to beginning the program. This allows us to review your medical/injury history and assess your posture and body movement. We will then create a tailored program based on the assessment which will be conducted in your 1-1 sessions.
Your physiotherapist will guide you through your exercises and adapt them each week based on your progress. You will also be provided with a personalised home program to help augment your Clinical Exercise class. These will consist of stretches, pelvic strengthening/stability exercises and postural exercises.
Once you have completed 10 classes - your physiotherapist will book you in for an appointment to discuss and recommend the next chapter in your health journey to either continue with classes or join group fitness classes.
Can I claim through private health?
You are able to claim private health insurance on the initial 1-1 Clinical Exercise consultation and assessment appointments. If you have extras with your private heath insurance you will be able to claim on your classes as well.
