Last week I had one of those situations where a patient couldn’t get off the bed by themselves due to their back “locking up”.
Ryan here had a acute back spasm episode from an aggravated lumbar spine and previous disc bulge herniation. His McKenzie extensions were fine and relieving, but being on his front meant his back went into protective muscle spasm.
Sound familIar? Does this happen to you or have you had a patient like this?
So I had to do a step by step guide to get him get from lying to standing. This was really helpful for him as he needed to do this at home for a few days until it fully settled AND he had to learn to do it by himself (unaided) in case he was by himself and this happened again.
It was so helpful we thought we would share this process with you all to help anyone out there who has a back that locks up.
Good news is he is now good again and back doing his core stability and strength work as well as the mobility drills.
