Synopsis: An easy-to-understand guide on identifying the source of your back pain and finding solutions for long-lasting relief that work best for your body

According to recent figures, back pain has now reached epidemic proportions with millions of people across the globe experiencing severe muscular pain every year. In fact, over 4 million people now search “lower back pain” into Google every month. Most are suffering completely unnecessarily, as the root cause of their pain stems primarily from poor postural habits while performing everyday actions. But help is at hand with Back in Balance, an easy-to-understand practical book designed to help readers discover the cause of their own individual back problem and offer them an effective and lasting solution to their suffering. This essential guide draws on many of the principles of the Alexander Technique, a practical way of releasing muscular tension throughout the body.

Helping the reader to discover how their posture and movements may be having a detrimental effect on their health, this guide offers new ways of performing daily activities, with the aim of reducing muscular tension and stress on the bones and joints—and making their lives pain free.
