#031 Learn Exercises for Low Back Pain Caused by Facet Joint Disease

No one else like you Dr. Furlan (and so sweet!). The facet pain is agonizing.

This is so helpful!! I'm a 35 year old nurse with facet joint arthropathy. It can be so painful. I am so glad I found this channel ♥️

I think this is sound and objective advice. I have seen orthopaedic surgeons and chronic pain specialists, and had the nerve block procedure that Dr Furlan refers to (all in Australia) and I can tell you that her advice is consistent with what I heard from those specialists.

Thanks so much, Dr. F! Of all the vids on FJD, your suggestions were by far the most helpful. By squating instead of bending to pick up things, I now have 90% less pain/discomfort. Everyone's unique, but I'm 49 and got fit again through diet, swimming freestyle laps, cycling, running, and doing planks. And with my weight loss (20lbs) and stronger body, I'm even able to play some tennis again. And they say "sitting is the new smoking," so I try to get up from my desk every 20 min.

Thank you Doctor, recently diagnosed with facet joint issues, physical therapy helped a lot, yet seating for a long time still causes pain, very difficult to brake old habits, found your video very helpful yet simple and precise.

I have facet joint pain and the position that work best for me is the bridge position. Thank you for making this video I found it truly helpful. This pain is terrible even after therapy.

Thanks a lot Dr Furlan your all exercises help me. I'm 62 years and feeling pain in knees, hip joint and shoulders and neck as well. With these exercises I am recovering gradually.

Dr Furlan. Good evening. I had the facet joint injections in August 2020 and the nerve reduction treatment in february 2021. in August 2020 I spent 5 nights i the clini , my back spasm was so bad. Ive never experienced pain like it. and Its been a huge relief since. And I excercise much more now by using the bicycle. After each of the treatments I had kiniosologia (physotherapy) and alot of your excercises are the same as those recommended by the clinic that I attended for both procedures. I know my back will never be fully right and not its a bit more psycolgical for me now, Im terrified of this pain returning. The key I believe from my own personal experience is exercise but if it hurts dont over do it, and keep the weight off. The excess weight on the body its the first biggest stumbing block. Bar some other future miracle it is my only option for now. Thank you for your video. When our covid restrictions life here a little in South America I want to be strong enough to go back surfing ( fingers crossed ) Thank you again.

Put my knees to my chest just now and got instant relief, so I’m gonna go try all these. Thanks so much, I appreciate it.

All your videos are A M A Z I N G....It's obvious you've put a lot of time and effort into these very informative videos, thank you for that!
