BackHab II – Progressions for Orthopedic and Chronic Conditions Correspondence Course Description The BackHab II program focuses on relearning functional movement patterns with carryover to activities of daily living. Progressions are included to further challenge qualities such as balance, coordination, endurance, trunk stability and gait. Alignment with neutral spine is re-evaluated with every change in exercise. Precautions and modifications are included. The program has proven to be ideal for clients with chronic pain, with shoulder, hip, knee, ankle and back disorders, and with chronic conditions such as fibromyalgia, MS, arthritis, asthma, obesity, diabetes, high blood pressure, and older adults and those recovering from strokes. BackHab can be used in one-on-one rehab and personal training, in groups, and the client can use it independently for post-rehab conditioning.
