We are sharing the top 10 mistakes people with tend to make - today we are talking about getting moving.

When people are in pain they often stop moving as much as they used to. It is quite important to start doing gentle movements that don't aggravate your pain and start to ease it.

Gently increase how much you can do so that you can progress back to the things you used to do.

We are sharing the top 10 mistakes people with tend to make - today we are talking about sleep position.

When people have back pain it can be really difficult to find a comfortable position and also when they get out of bed they feel really stiff and creaky.

We recommend trying a pillow between the knees if you side sleep or under the knees if you lie on your back.

Before you get out of bed in the morning also do some gentle stretches without pain so you can move better when you are up and about.

We are sharing the top 10 mistakes people with tend to make - today we are talking about posture - having a good posture is so important if you get back pain, aches or general stiffness.

It is so easy when we are tired or busy to forget about our posture.

So do you sit cross-legged?

How do you sit in a chair for work?

How do you sit in the evenings when you get home?

If you have back pain it is probably time to make some changes to how you sit so that it reduces your aches and pains.

It takes persistence but it is so worth it.

We are sharing our top 10 mistakes we often find people make with back pain.

Today we are talking medication - do you try and avoid it?

Most people we see try and avoid it but sometimes it is necessary initially to reduce pain and start to get you moving. Then when you are moving more you can reduce the medication and try other ways to manage any aches or pain you might be experiencing.

Are these top 10 mistakes with helping?

Let us know below with a comment.

Today we are talking about the next common mistake people make who have back pain.... Today is all about trying lots of things but not really sure what has helped or not.

We often see people who have been struggling for a while and seem to have tried lots of different things but if you aren't following a plan or have a consistent approach how will you know what is and what isn't working?

Remember to keep it simple and try 1 thing at a time to test if it is helping.

We thought we would share what we think are the top 10 mistakes people make with back pain - so today's mistake is that people don't get their problem assessed.

Are you putting up with something, do you just think it is old age or just back pain and need to put up with it?

How do you know if someone hasn't assessed it and told you what the problem is? Have you googled it?!

Often people who have been to see someone are told that they need to lose weight and move more but we know this is difficult when you are in pain.

We recommend that you get it assessed, get a treatment plan to reduce the pain and get you moving easily with support.

Then when the pain is reduced you can really concentrate on losing weight and feeling fitter and healthier.

Every day this week we are doing a post with the top 10 mistakes people make with back pain!

So number 2 - not listening to your body... are you guilty of this?

Following on from yesterday do you ignore the warning signs your body is giving you? Do you ignore aches, twinges, catches or stiffness?

What if you listened to it and did something about it before it became a pain or really restricting?

Do you need to listen to what your body is trying to tell you right now?

We are going to share with you our top 10 mistakes people make with back pain

Number 1 - they wait to get help - have you been guilty of this in the past? Comment below

People often say to us "Oh I thought it would get better on its own...." or "It started with just a twinge... and I ignored it and now....!"

Unfortunately, hindsight is a wonderful thing but just so you know if you get help when it is just a twinge or ache, you will have fewer aches and pains but also be able to get better quicker.

So my advice - DON'T WAIT

"I'm too stiff for Pilates" – we hear it all the time! ✋ But that’s exactly why you should start.

Our classes are about:
✅ Maintenance: A "service" for your joints to prevent future pain.
✅ Small Groups: Tailored moves that respect your injuries.
✅ Flexibility: Building it slowly, bone-by-bone.

Think of it as looking after your "chassis" for the long run. 🚗✨ Book your spot and start feeling the difference!

This week we are exploring pain and hoping to help you understand pain better.

If your automatic nervous system (flight/flight/freeze mode) is in overdrive because you are feeling threatened the amount of pain you experience will increase.

People often say to me they are:
- feeling stiff and not very supple…
- having niggles in their joints and back…
- wanting to strengthen their core & improve posture…
- nervous about starting something in case they'll be left behind or not sure what to do…

Want to be taught by a teacher who understand beginners and knows they can't do the fancy exercises and stretches?!
Join our next beginners small pilates trial classes in September which can help you:
- Reduce aches and stiffness
- Get some ME Time
- Improve your flexibility and keep mobile
- Improve your strength

These small group sessions are created by a Sports Therapist and an experienced teacher who will make you feel at ease, safe to exercise and make sure you are doing it correctly.

- We care about how you are doing the exercises
- We walk around the room to make sure you are doing the exercises correctly and safely and modify if necessary
- a slower pace to help you understand the exercises properly
- other people like you (often over the age of 40) who have the same worries about not being very bendy!

Julie came to Pilates and said “I was concerned that it would be complicated and not suitable for my poor coordination. I thoroughly enjoyed the session. They explained each exercise and demonstrated first. She was then very patient and helped me to complete each exercise slowly and in the correct position. They were so patient and this made me feel relaxed and comfortable..”

The taster classes have maximum 8 people. Come and try our beginners class for free and if you love it which we are sure you will we are doing an introductory 5 week course for £70

How Bodyfixit can help you

At Bodyfixit we are passionate about helping people who are frustrated with aches and pains stopping them moving easily and enjoying being active and life.

We show people how they can manage their body, resolve their aches and pains, achieving their goals and get back to smiling.

We love it when a client comes in and has been able to sit comfortably in a chair for the first time in ages, sleep comfortably or do their challenge they have set themselves.

We help people see that there is an alternative to feeling stressed, cautious when you move and worried you are going to make it worse, also that taking pain medication, putting up with something or losing weight is not the only answer.
