If you're here, chances are that your current treatment approach isn't working. It's time to ditch the symptom-chasing therapies that keep letting you down.

My goal is to show you how re-aligning the body and restoring natural movement to your whole body can eliminate your pain at the root cause. This is the last pain solution you'll ever need and in my view, it should be the first thing everyone does to fix their pain.

Are you struggling with back pain? Frustrated that nothing gets rid of it? Knowing WHY the pain is there is important to get lasting relief, so you're not just symptom-chasing.

Treatments targeting only the area that hurts are often missing the source of the problem. The back is often the victim of how other joints and muscles in the body are not working properly.

What's going on in the body to put the back in such a position to hurt?

By restoring movement to the whole body, you can remove the cause of your back pain once and for all.

Why is it so difficult to get rid of pain, despite all the therapies we try and money we spend? Millions of people suffer with chronic pain, yet few find the solution for long-term relief.

My research led me to discover the biomechanical reason behind my back, hip and sciatic pain and I learnt how to fix it once. Now I want to share this with you.

I uncover why the pain keeps coming back no matter what we try, and how to identify and solve the true, biomechanical source of your pain.

This is a must-watch if you’ve tried everything under the sun and you’re frustrated that your pain – whether that’s back, knee, hip, foot, shoulder, sciatic or other kind of pain – keeps coming back.

Here’s what you need to know to fix it for good.

You know when you do everything you’re meant to do, follow the instructions to a ‘T’, do the work even when you don’t feel like it, push through the tiredness and the pain because the promise of the outcome on the other side is so great….

The promise of a pain-free life. Running again. Playing tennis. Taking part in family stuff rather than being left out, because of constant discomfort.

Except that, despite all the work you’ve put in, the time you’ve invested, the money too….

You don’t get the result you’ve worked for.

You get nothing.

Only more pain.

And time and money wasted.

How demoralising and frustrating and soul-destroying is that?

Yet millions of people are experiencing this exact feeling every single day.

The false promise of so many pain treatments leaves so many people in despair wondering ‘what exactly do I need to do to make this back pain go away?’

Despite the hours of stretching, the yoga sessions, core strengthening, chiro and physio, that nagging, pesky pain returns.

There’s one simple change to make so that your diligent work and determination to banish the pain actually pays off.

It simply needs a subtle shift in focus.

If you have back pain, for example, you’ve probably been told to stretch the back, or strengthen it, maybe massage it or spend money on other treatments focused on your back.

But, if so many treatments fail to work, is it really a back issue?

Let’s zoom out for a second and look at what the rest of the body is doing. How is it moving? Or not moving? Is a hip a bit stuck? Pelvis tilted forward? Shoulder elevated?

What’s the rest of the body doing to put the back into such a position that it hurts?

If we can see back pain as a reaction to what’s going on in the rest of the body, we can refocus our attention on restoring movement to the whole body, to relieve the tension and pressure on the back.

A simple shift in focus can be the key to unlocking the pain-free life you've been diligently working towards.

Myth: Finding the right stretches for my back will make the back pain go away

Truth: Back pain is a consequence of what is going on in the whole body, therefore a whole body approach is required to get lasting relief.

What if the constant pain in your back is actually a protective mechanism the body is using to help you out?

Hear me out on this.

When your ankles, knees, hips, and shoulders function well and are balanced, your spine will have a natural S-curve and the entire spine can fluidly bend, flex, and twist without symptoms or limitation.

When the muscles don’t function well, perhaps from years of sedentary living, the S-curve can be lost completely to form more of a C-curve, which comes with a flat back or posterior pelvic tilt.

When your spine loses these favourable curves over time, your body resorts to a last ditch effort of contracting or tensing all the muscles that surround the spine, hips, and shoulders, in an attempt to “lock down” your movement.

It’s a protective mechanism to reduce movement in an area that has lost its favourable alignment and function.

Most people feel this “tightness” and think their back hurts because its tight…yet that tightness, in most cases might actually be the only thing “protecting” your spine from further issues or damage.

An example of this is someone stretching day over day, and not really getting looser, or even worse, experiencing more pain/symptoms the more they stretch.

The solution to getting rid of this back pain is not about finding that magic stretch or just strengthening the back.

That pelvis and spine position is just a reaction to what’s going on in the WHOLE the body.

So getting rid of back pain requires a whole body approach.

Restoring the natural curves to the spine and rebalancing a posterior pelvis to a more neutral position needs the ankles, knees, hips, shoulders, the spine to function properly.

That way, the spine returns to a functional natural “S shape” and the central nervous system can release that “tight protection mechanism and the pain disappears.

Today, I’m going to bust the myth that just stretching your back helps get rid of back pain, especially if you have a posterior pelvic tilt or flat back.Chec...

Got an anterior pelvic tilt that's causing back pain and don't know how to fix it?

Here’s a tip to help you avoid making the same mistake I did, of just stretching the hip flexors and strengthening the glutes, thinking that will tilt the pelvis back into position and relieve the pain.

The position of the pelvis is influenced by what’s going on in the whole body – the hips and shoulders primarily.

Let’s focus on the hips to keep it simple. Your hips should be really mobile and able to rotate, flex, extend comfortably in the hip socket. But when they stop being able to do that and lose balanced between left and right, the hips get stuck rotated either inwards or outwards or one might rotate one way, and one the other way.

Now, the pelvis, which sits on top of the hip joints, is going to have a hard time staying in place, because the foundation below is now….well, wonky.

So, the pelvis will shift, rotate….tilt forward to accommodate everything that’s happening below.

The pelvis is simply reacting to the environment around it.

In this example, the loss of movement in the hip is the problem, but this could also apply to a foot that doesn’t work well that changes the balance of everything upstream. Or one shoulder that’s elevated which affects the pelvis position downstream.

So, is it really the pelvis that’s the problem? Or is it a problem with how the whole body is functioning that’s putting the pelvis in an anterior tilted position?

Eliminating long-term pain in an area of the body always requires a full-body approach to restore balance and function to ALL the areas that have lost it.

We have to at how the entire body created this in the first place.

It’s never about just isolating the part that hurts and focusing all the efforts there. As I’m sure you know, that doesn’t work.

Here’s a simple exercise routine to help rebalance an anterior pelvis by restoring balance and function to the whole body.

Let me know how you get on.
