Unsuccessful Lumbar Fusion Surgery

Unsuccessful Lumbar Fusion Surgery

In order to help our patients achieve the best possible recovery, we need to not only show them what to do but also demonstrate how to do it properly. Lumbar fusion exercise is a great way for your patient to continue their recovery once they leave the hospital. These exercises can help stabilize the lumbar spine after surgery and reduce the risk of further damage or re-injury. The best part about lumbar fusion exercise is that you don’t need any fancy equipment – just your hands and a willingness to help your patient get better!


I received a Facebook message and thought I would share with you my reply.

Here you go:

Hi, my name is TB and I was doing some research on the internet with regard to exercise after surgery.

My husband had a L5 fusion 4 yrs ago and has been on pain management since. We are desperately seeking ways to give him relief.

He is only 37 and we have 4 children, yet he is unable to live his daily life due to his back pain.

The information I found in regards to your work was geared toward Medical Professionals.

Do you have information that we can access and hopefully put to good work?

Thank you so much for any time that you may spend on this, we are pretty desperate.

Sincerely,
TB

Heartache

My heart aches when I hear stories like this.

I understand how it is to be in pain and to wonder if you will ever be able to do the things you love or even be able to play with your kids.

All I can say is – you never should give up. Keep searching for an answer and keep moving.

My passion is to help educate fitness professionals and clients to use exercise to help overcome their injuries.

One of those injuries is lumbar fusion.lowerback-dvdcover-large

Let me get to TB’s specific questions:

Will the Lumbar Fusion Exercise Program Help Those Recovering from Lumbar Fusion?

Yes, it will.

I initially created The Lumbar Fusion Exercise Program to help fitness professionals. Still, I have received feedback from those recovering from lumbar fusion that they have used the program to help themselves recover from their lumbar fusion.

#1 – Video Presentation

In the lumbar fusion exercise video program, I explain what lumbar fusion is, a few of the causes, and things you need to do to recover from a lumbar fusion, and outline an exercise program that you can do at your local gym or fitness center to help you recover.

#2 – Copy of the Exercises

I will also give you a presentation copy, with pictures of the exercises you should be doing.

I recommend bringing the list of exercises to the gym or community center and asking one of the staff to help you out, even though I explain everything in detail in the presentation.

Feel free to bring the program to your surgeon, doctor, or physical therapist to get their feedback.

#3 – I am Here to Help

Plus, you can always send me an email, and I will certainly try to help you out.

#4 – Here is Your Money Back

Lastly, if it is not what you want or does not help you, I will give you your money back.

I am here to help people and have been doing so since 1994.

Before I wrap up, I want to say that this program is not a quick fix. You need to be able to dedicate time to exercise 3 times a week for 12 weeks. That is 36 sessions. The exercise program helps, and it works, but not unless you do it as outlined.
