How do I safely regain mobility after back surgery?
Gravity Stretching Method Team
After back surgery, the body needs to rebuild mobility carefully. Moving too aggressively is risky, but staying frozen leads to stiffness and weakness. The path is gentle, progressive movement - once your surgeon clears you.
How Gravity Stretching helps
Gravity Stretching is gentle and fully controlled by you, which makes it a good complement to post-surgical recovery once cleared. The straps support your weight, decompression keeps the spine unloaded, and you progress at your own pace.
This is essential: do not begin until your surgeon has cleared you, and start at the easiest level with a trainer who knows your history.
