Permanently Relieve Back Pain Through Targeted Exercise – in Basel
Back pain is one of the most common complaints among people who spend a lot of time sitting—at the office, in the car, or on the couch in the evening. Do you sit for 8 hours a day and know that feeling of having to warm up a bit after getting up?
The usual instinct: rest, stretch, and wait it out. That’s usually the wrong strategy. What really helps: targeted strengthening of the core and back muscles. With the right plan, the right technique—and the right trainer.
Why Targeted Exercise Helps with Back Pain
A weak core is often the underlying cause of chronic back pain. If the deep stabilizing muscles—the abdomen, back, and hips—aren’t strong enough, the body compensates by adopting incorrect movement patterns. This leads to strain and pain.
Targeted training addresses precisely this underlying cause—with lasting results, without medication, and without endless physical therapy.
What We'll Do With You
Analysis of Your Movement Patterns
Before we start training, let's take a close look: Where are the weak spots? Which muscles are underactive? Which movements cause pain?
Targeted Core and Back Training
We'll develop a plan tailored to your specific situation—with exercises that help and without those that make things worse.
Proper Technique from the Start
Exercises performed incorrectly can worsen back pain. Starting with Session 1, we make sure every movement is performed correctly.
Mobility for the Hip and Thoracic Spine
Limited hip mobility is a common contributing factor to back pain. We combine strength training with targeted flexibility exercises.
“Matthiasis great at tailoring his training to individual goals. His customized program is just the right level of challenging and is really fun, even though I’ve never been a fan of the gym. Since I’ve been doing strength training with Matthias, my back problems are a thing of the past .”
"Thanksto my regular strength training, I've been able to build a lot of muscle over the years. I now have my previous back problems well under control—they've almost completely disappeared."
Important Note
Personal training is not a substitute for medical or physical therapy treatment for acute or severe conditions. If you are experiencing severe or new pain, we recommend seeking a medical evaluation first. For chronic conditions, we are happy to work in consultation with your doctor or physical therapist.
Where does the training take place?
Our classes are held at EVO Fitness Basel.
