What is ESCAPE-pain for backs?

ESCAPE-pain is a rehabilitation programme that combines education and gentle exercise.

Please Note: This programme is not a cure and will not eliminate pain completely. Instead, it is designed to give you the tools to manage your condition.

The programme aims to:

  • Reduce chronic lower back pain.
  • Improve physical function and mobility.
  • Boost self-confidence.
  • Help manage the emotional frustration often caused by long-term pain.

Each of the 12 sessions is split between practical education-helping you understand your pain and how to manage it and a tailored exercise circuit designed to safely build your strength and flexibility.
