Essential exercises for a strong back following spinal fusion surgery 

It’s so important to keep the muscles around your spine and fusion strong following surgery and we swear by these two essential resistance band exercises, which cover all of your main upper to mid back muscles. The “Arms Above Head” and the “Arms Behind Back”. 

 Arms Above Head

Works your upper to mid back muscles (trapezius, rhomboids and latissimus dorsi) and your biceps and core.

Arms Behind Back (a John Rutherford physiotherapist exercise)

Works your upper back muscles, rhomboids, the one between your shoulder blades, as well as triceps and core.

Find these exercises and more in The Scoliosis Handbook which goes alongside our Scoliosis and Spinal Fusion home study course.

Want to know how to gradually re-build strength following a spinal fusion surgery? Beyond a few basic exercises that most surgeons provide after surgery, it can be a minefield navigating exercise over the short-medimum term and knowing which exercises are safe to slowly regain your strength.

Our Scoliosis and Spinal Fusion course will teach you safe and effective exercises to regain the all important strength needed to support your fusion and become even stronger than you were before surgery in a gradual way 💪
