The person behind BackPainSecret

NCSF Certified Personal Trainer & Back Pain Specialist

Based in Switzerland. Office worker turned back pain specialist. I built this programme to solve my own problem, and it worked.

My story

I'm not a doctor or a physiotherapist. I'm an office worker, and for years, chronic back pain was just part of my life. I tried the standard route: specialists, treatments, stretching routines. Some things helped temporarily, but nothing actually fixed it.

So I started studying everything I could find on back pain, movement, and rehabilitation. I trained and certified as a Personal Trainer through NCSF and completed their specialist programme in back pain. Then I took what I had learned and built a structured system designed specifically for people who sit at a desk all day, and used it on myself.

It worked. My back pain disappeared. So I tested the programme with a group of volunteers, refined it based on their results, and eventually turned it into what BackPainSecret is today.

The BackPainSecret system

The programme is built on one insight: if you sit at a desk all day, your back pain is almost always caused by the same things, wrong posture, wrong movements, wrong habits. And all of those are fixable. No surgery, no ongoing appointments, no complicated equipment.

The 8-week programme gives you the exact exercises and daily habits to get rid of your back pain for good. It's made for people who have already tried stretching, physio, or painkillers and still haven't found something that works long-term.

Why this works

Because it was built by someone who had the same problem you have. I didn't study back pain in a clinic, I lived it, researched it obsessively, and solved it. The programme has since helped many people significantly reduce or completely eliminate their back pain. I know it can do the same for you.
