I wonder if anyone in my area offers something like that. All my best with your back. I am not a medical professional, but my back was going out all of the time until I got really serious about doing planks, boats, and other core building work. But, again, your PCP, specialist, or rehab therapist would know more about back health than I. I only know about my back. Cyber hugs, Alana! Karen D.

I'm glad she wasn't hurt (and that I didn't fall while trying to help her). Karen D.

I have back issues, and balance issues, and I do exercises I learned at a fall prevention 8 week class, but it is obvious, based on my pain and my back "going out" at least once a year (last time was the early morning hours of New Year's Eve 2018 - not a good way to celebrate NYE) that is is not enough.
