They did better at work, took pleasure in hobbies more, were motivated to keep exercising, did more to make do with their own pain conditions without outside help. These, in turn, motivated them to enjoy a healthier way of life. (3) These benefits arose without back surgery.
EXERCISE BEFORE BACK SURGERY

They set up exercise programs for each patient to do. They discovered that back pain patients who experienced this pre-surgery program of explanation and exercise benefitted in several ways: The back pain sufferers noticed improvement exercising than being inactive while waiting for surgery. The back pain sufferers’ frame of mind improved as they exercised. They had time to mull over their treatment and lifestyle options. Even patients who did not report symptom improvement responded well to this program as they thought themselves more confident managing their pain themselves.
