Why Virtual Back Pain Coaching Works
At Back Bay Health, we’ve spent years helping active adults in Boston recover from back pain and return to the activities they love. Over that time, one thing has become clear: people don’t get better because of endless imaging, adjustments, or quick fixes…they get better when they understand their pain, engage in physical activity, and make sustainable lifestyle changes.
That same philosophy is now available anywhere in the country through our program, Back Pain Coach, launching later this year. Virtual back pain coaching allows us to deliver the same evidence-based, empowering care that Back Bay Health is known for - from the comfort of your home or office.
Motion is Lotion
At Back Bay Health, we’ve always emphasized that movement is the foundation of recovery. Avoiding activity has the potential to fuel fear and keep you stuck in a cycle of pain and inactivity. With Back Pain Coach, we’ll guide you through safe, progressive exercises that restore confidence in your body and support whatever goals matter most to you - whether it’s lifting weights, running or chasing kids around the house.
Beyond Quick Fixes
Our patients at Back Bay Health often tell us they’ve “tried everything” before finding us - from heat, to electric stim, and chiropractic adjustments, to injections. Don’t get me wrong, all of those things can be helpful in some situations but they do not offer sustainable relief. Research shows what really works is building long-term skills: learning how to load your body, improving sleep and stress management, and handling setbacks without fear. Virtual coaching through Back Pain Coach delivers the self-management tools that provide lasting relief, not band-aids.
Virtual Care = Real Results
You might wonder: “Don’t I need hands-on care for my back?” After all, our clinical degrees are in chiropractic which literally translates to ‘done by hand’. Decades of research show that hands-on care is not a superior approach - the best outcomes come from education, movement, and lifestyle strategies - all of which can be delivered virtually. Just as we do at Back Bay Health in Boston, our Back Pain Coach team designs interactive, personalized programs that help you progress step by step, without the need for a clinic visit.
Lifestyle First
At Back Bay Health, we understand how every day factors like sleep, stress, and physical activity influence back pain. Back Pain Coach expands on that holistic view, helping you identify the lifestyle habits that matter most and coaching you to integrate them in ways that last.
Confidence Over Fear
Perhaps the greatest benefit of virtual coaching is a shift in mindset. Instead of being told to avoid bending, twisting, or lifting, you’ll learn that your spine is strong, adaptable, and safe to move. Back Bay Health has always promoted this movement-positive, anti-nocebo approach…and Back Pain Coach makes it available to anyone, anywhere.
The Bottom Line
Back pain coaching isn’t just a substitute for in-person care, it’s an evidence-based, empowering, and effective way to take control of your health. By expanding from Back Bay Health to launch Back Pain Coach, we’re making the same trusted, movement-focused approach available across the country.
If you’re ready to move past short-term fixes and build lifelong resilience, Back Pain Coach is here to help. Stay tuned for our official launch this Fall!
