Home Assessment

In the course of our daily lives we repetitively stand, walk, bend, lift, carry, sit, slouch and sleep in positions that can have a detrimental effect on our bodies. We spend hours sitting at our desks, in cars or watching TV while not using our muscles correctly which does nothing to improve posture. This overworks and strains some muscles whilst others get weaker.

• Can it be that your office chair or car seat is aggravating your problem?
• Does the way you brush your teeth, watch TV or load the dishwasher bring on your pain?
• Are your bed, pillows and sleeping position doing more harm than good?
• Are your computer, key board and chair correctly positioned?
• Is your garden looking beautiful, but your back suffering?
• Does bending down or standing over a hot stove or cutting up vegetables leaves you ache?
• Does bathing, carrying or feeding a heavy baby leaves you want to cry?
• re the back pain exercises you have been given not working?

We all abuse our bodies, doing exactly what our brains want us to do only stopping to pay attention to our bodies when we are in pain, then we rush to a professional and expecting them to get rid of the pain quickly! This cycle can continue indefinitely. You may have been given some back pain exercises, but these will never be enough. In fact, you need to learn how to improve posture, carry out things correctly and increase functional mobility of the entire body.
“Until you address the factors that may be contributing to your problems and eliminate them, you will never successfully control the pain”

The B4 Home Assessment will address these issues and more.

• The B4 Home Assessment (which includes a specific back pain assessment) teaches you to be aware of your posture in all situations and establishes what is causing your pain and helps you improve posture.
• We also need to assess on an ongoing basis how we use our bodies to prevent further damage.
• Next we need to take steps to eliminate any contributing factors and start to give the body the attention needed as well as examine the back pain exercises you already do to encompass all of the body’s needs.
• B4 will provide you with unique methods of retraining your body by developing habit forming techniques to dramatically improve posture, thereby alleviating existing pain as well as reducing the risk of pain recurring.
• The back pain assessment examines not only the above methods, but also the use of ice, heat, appropriate medication with doctors supervision as well as the use of specific aids which can be of benefit to you.

The B4 methods are unique, and you will be amazed at the considerable difference the Home Assessment together with your personalized back pain assessment will make in alleviating, controlling and preventing your pain.
