June 16, 2010 - PRLog -- A 72 year old lady is able to walk again thanks to therapeutic techniques from Functional Fitness Pain Free Back and Neck DVD.

She suffered from back pain so intensely that she had to be carried in to the therapeutic class taught by licensed occupational therapy practitioner, Suzanne Andrews, host of Functional Fitness on PBS TV.  The class was originally intended for people who had the ability to exercise sitting on the floor and standing.  In this defining moment, the concept of Functional Fitness was born.  If this woman, who was in such obvious pain, was determined to take the class, Suzanne Andrews was just as determined to offer modifications with each exercise so that the lady could participate. Suzanne found a chair and taught each therapeutic exercise in both sitting and standing.

Suzanne’s compassion for people is enormous as she also survived a car crash and rehabilitated herself through the methods used in this DVD. Pain medication only masked the symptoms and made her too tired to go about her day.  Rather than surgery, she sought less invasive procedures. Suffering severe neck and back pain, she was immobile until she met a physical therapist who showed her what to do.  Although it wasn’t the quickest route and was painful at first, determination to regain her life ensued and she made 100% recovery without surgery. Deeply encouraged by her recovery, she went to get a degree in Occupational Therapy which specializes in helping people regain functional abilities. She continued to improve the program and was offered a TV series, Functional Fitness starring Suzanne Andrews ® through WDSC TV. The series is the first program out of Volusia County to be approved by the National Educational Television for nationwide broadcast on the PBS network of stations.

The series has many avid fans for obvious reasons. The lady who couldn’t walk, Karol Hellsten, a health care provider states, “ When I first decided to try Suzanne Andrews Functional Fitness Pain Free Back and Neck class, I was in so much pain, I couldn't even walk. I got stiffer and weaker until I just couldn't take it anymore. This program taught me how to strengthen my back safely, increase my range of motion without pain and how to avoid recurring back pain. Now I can dance again”!
Recent research suggests that 80 percent of the population with back pain can forego surgery by correcting the problem with

1.) therapy
2.) proper nutrition
3.) maintaining a healthy body weight.

It is always preferrable to try conservative corrective approach first before attempting major surgery.
