Get Back On Track: A Lower Back Pain Workshop

I recently attended the “Get Back On Track – A Slipped Disc Workshop” conducted by Jerry Teo.

Many of us with disc problems tend to avoid any back exercises, resulting in the core becoming weak and back pain sets in. In this workshop, we learned the importance of having a balanced core and how to eventually work towards overcoming our fear and to develop confidence in our movement. It helps us identify whether its movement or fitness training we need and how to work within our own limits and not overloading them.

The exercises taught and practiced were practical and easy to implement on a daily basis. I would highly recommended this workshop to those who has disc conditions, suffer from back pain and wants to know how to overcome it.

I have been waiting for a workshop like this since sustaining disc herniation in 2015. Going for regular therapies does nor quite cut it for me. The workshop had helped me understand my condition and abilities so much more and the BIG 3 will form the basis of my fitness regime going forward to achieve ‘movement confidence’. Thank you Jerry and team. I have gained so much more awareness since the workshop and will not hesitate to recommend anyone in need of this workshop.

An afternoon well spent. Attended a Slipped Disc workshop by my favorite teacher Jerry of #pilatesbodytree and learned the principles of a balanced core and exercises to strengthen the necessary muscles to reduce pain. 👍👍👍

I had appreciated Daniel’s Pilates, since about 10years ago and I must confess that during that specific time I had just forgotten “My slipped disc”, but could not realize it: just forgot.

I had joined a couple of classes when Daniel and yourself set up the Pilates Body tree, and always appreciated the efficiency and professionalism of your coaching.

Just coming back from a 2 years leave out of Singapore, I did not hesitate when I had the opportunity to join this specific class.

I enjoyed it. I could for the first time understand the functioning and the fundamentals of a slipped disk environment and finally just understand that any movement or position of our body must adhere to some protocols that you could fully transmit to our understanding.

I just now ask myself, after a Yoga class or a luggage carrying: “How should I rate my disk pain, between 0 and 10, after this exercise? Meaning, did I do it correctly or not? Very simple no?

An afternoon well spent and well worth the travel time! When Applied Load is more than Tissue Tolerance, getting out of pain, reaching performance goals. Pain relief, strengthening moves to avoid back injuries, how to sit, stand, walk, etc…all in that 3hrs! Thank you Jerry for generously sharing all this knowledge! It is a MUST for all who has had lower back pain at any point in their lives.

It was an enjoyable session with Jerry, Dorcas, and Jasmine, as it was a good mix of practical and theoretical knowledge. There is a bit of a workout, and I found the Big 3 techniques useful for managing my back stiffness. I would recommend this session to anyone who has back issues – both diagnosed and undiagnosed – because you’ll learn how to break some bad habits and build new ones to improve your back.

I enjoyed the session Get Back on Track, a workshop for participants with back issues, with Jerry, Dorcas and Jasmine. The session reinforced that my physio sessions have put me on the right track, and in the workshop, I learned some new exercises, as well as focused on details of some well known ones. For example, everyone knows the bird dog moves, but Jerry and his team focused on the breathing as well as the fully stretched arms and legs, as in straight elbow and straight knee. These details took it up to another level. Definitely worth it going for the workshop.
