"8 weeks of guidance by Slava, I postponed my surgery and pain and medication free"

I visited the Back Rehab clinic last October as a last resort before back surgery. After 8 weeks of (tough) exercise guided by Slava I confidently postponed my surgery and now six months am pain and medication free. Give this a go if you’re looking for an end to your back pain. Slavs knows his stuff and delivers a programme that’s challenging but effective.
