Welcome to Backpoints!

If you have had problems with your back in the past there is a good chance you will have reoccurring problems in the future.  This is the basic underlying theory behind and the major motivating force in the development of the Backpoints program.  Therefore, look at the Backpoints program from a dual approach.

I.  Prevention

If you do not have a history of any back pain, or problems, or if the problems you had were very minor and many years ago, this program will help eliminate the possibility of future problems.  It may also decrease the severity of any problems that may occor or reoccur.

II.  Therapy

If you have had an attack of back pain, muscle spasms, or other problems of the back and the program will be theraeutic.  The major goal of this to help you relieve the pain as soon as possible, and help you get back to your regular activities as soon as possible.
