6 Effective Exercises to Ease Back Pain & Heal Your Spine

It turns out that back pain is a more common problem than we’d like to think. A 2018 study showed that in the past few decades time spent with back pain has increased by 54% worldwide. One reason for this spike might be due to the fact more and more people fall into a routine of a sedentary lifestyle, working in front of screens for hours every day. While we can’t control the aspects of modern life that contribute to back pain, we can certainly take some preventative measures to improve our health, like this exercise set invented by the famed surgeon Nikolai Amosov.
A few words on Nikolai Amosov and his set of exercises 
Nikolai Amosov was a brilliant heart surgeon, inventor, and best-selling author from Russia. Among his many contributions to the world, Amosov, who suffered himself from recurring back pain, created a set of exercises meant to ease those pains. He proved their effectiveness on himself. Amosov lived a long life, and not only did his spine heal thanks to the exercises, but they also helped in strengthening his muscles and avoiding joint problems, and the whole set only takes 30 minutes to complete. 
 
Bear in mind, however, that he performed each exercise 100 times at the maximum pace - his pulse reached 110–120 beats per minute, which is very close to aerobic training. For beginners, it is recommended that you start with 4–5 exercises from the list and do 10-15 repetitions of each. When you feel comfortable, you may incorporate all the exercise and raise the speed and the number of repetitions.

1. Back sit-ups on a chair
